Thanks to
Mitch McConnell we lost a Supreme Court nomination that would have shifted the Court neutral. Now with the retirement
of Kennedy we are looking at a Justice, to be nominated by President Trump, that
will swing the court hard right for decades to come.
The absolute
worst-case scenario would be the nomination of Jefferson Beauregard Sessions. Don’t laugh.
Trump could get rid of the Attorney General he hates and at the
same time shift the court far right with a justice that is against abortion rights,
immigration, gay rights, marijuana legislation, affirmative action and voting
rights; and believes ‘God’s Law’ is above man’s law. This would excite his base and be a win-win situation
for him.
If democrats try and block his nomination until after the November election they could energize Trump's base to turn out and vote
There is no
good outcome to this.
All the snow
flakes that refused to vote for Hillary because of her e-mails have just inherited
the wind.

Yes, it's bad news for progressives. A conservative Supreme Court will be a drag on justice for the next generation.
