In a move suspected if not anticipated, Justice Kennedy of the US Supreme Court, announced his retirement this week. The Liberal wind just picked up strength to gale force. After weeks of sharp discord and criticism over immigration, the Court announced a decision that upheld the Chhief Executive's right to limit immigration from selected foreign countries. This gave POTUS a 1 in the win column. As legal beagles swallowed this decision, the Justice made his announcement. Results: apoplexy on and of the left. The hand wringing has begun as the names and faces of nominees appear in all the dailies and on all the usual web sites. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell announced that the nominee, any nominee, would be approved long before the midterm elections this coming November. The Dems are found to be scurrying about, looking for shelter, hoping for a saving position as they suspect that the Supreme Court will take a definitive and lasting turn to the right/conservative position. Some of Mr. Trump's possible selections will no doubt cause indigestion among the libs. Thank you, Harry Reid, former Senate majority leader who engineered the rules change that allowed a simple majority vote to confirm an appointment to the Court. The little brain-addled former pugilist is probably ducking for cover in some hovel in the Nevada desert as he seeks a rat hole to hide from the justifiable anger from former colleagues and voters alike.
The Dems were warned that it would come back to haunt them, and it has proven true, sooner that they thought.
