Note to my senators (re Gorsuch)

[madamesilverspurs]

I've sent this to both of my senators.

Regardless of the present investigation into the Trump/Russia mess, the current president is the named defendant in cases that were filed before his candidacy and election. It is not inconceivable that one or more of those cases could ultimately be argued before the Supreme Court. That is sufficient reason, I should think, to deny anyone he nominates to that court, at least until such time that his legal issues are fully resolved. At stake, here, is nothing less than the full faith and confidence in our American system of justice; isn’t preserving that sufficient reason to postpone any confirmations?
