Democrats Supreme Court strategy.

THIS WILL NOT BE ANOTHER KAVANAUGH FIASCO

IT WILL ALL BE ABOUT TRUMP, SENATORS AND PROCESS 


While the new revolutionary democratic activists will be urging their senators to engage in another slash and burn confirmation battle, it is very unlikely this time around. With less than a month to the election, they will have to thread the needle to pacify their base but not alienate any of the dwindling number of swing voters left in the country.

If we all take a step back, this should not be that big a deal. Justices are to enforce the Constitution and the law, it is all right there in front to them. It is not hard work. It is when they try to find things that are not there that it gets to be a problem. This Judge pledges to interpret the law as written. Plain and simple. If it is not acceptable to the American people, then there is a process to change the law and even the Constitution. If all American would accept the law and the process to change it, we would have a much more unified country.

The Republicans and Trump are hoping they try to do a replay of the Kavanaugh hearings, which may have cost the Democrats the majority in the senate in 2018.

They are unlikely to bring up any sexual assault or other sexually inappropriate behavior as is the standard fare for male appointees. They will be tempted to go after her religious beliefs, which is a very tricky subject, especially since Catholics do have a large number of swing voters. The environmentalists and feminists will possibly like to go after her for having born 5 children, but the fact that she has adopted 2 black children will be another tricky area. It is unlikely that any personal attacks on this woman will be coming. It will take a lot of restraint, it will interesting to watch if they can do it.

So, they will likely focus their attacks on Trump for nominating a justice right before an election. They will go after the Senators for advancing her through the process. They will contend that it is an illegitimate appointment. They may go as far as to boycott the whole affair and let her be confirmed without a lot of fanfare. They will not get her nomination to be withdrawn, which was their hope with Kavanaugh. They understand the futility of their position.

The Republican senators are now battle hardened political warriors, ready to go on the offensive in a moment. Trump is anxious to respond to any inappropriate behavior by the democrat Senators. They are all ready and anxious for an all out battle. The democrats will likely grit their teeth and swallow hard and hold their fire for a battle they can win.
