Little GOP girls. (Apologies fer-sure to the little girls here, reading this.)
I agree. I saw that and it makes me wonder how someone could say something so stupid.
“ The senator’s spokesman said Schumer was referring to the political price Republicans “will pay for putting them on the court.” It was a warning, the spokesman said, “that the justices will unleash major grassroots movement on the issue of reproductive rights against the decision.”
But, to be fair, the president has been saying stupid, threatening and insulting crap on a daily basis. And his staff has to walk back his tweets and rants ever time.

One mild and indirect rebuke during three years of Trump’s trashing of the courts seems “shy” to me. And that one only scratched the surface of the slime emanating from this odious toad.
As USA Today put it . . .
“The statement rejecting Trump’s label was surprising coming from Roberts, a President George W. Bush appointee who has been reluctant to respond to Trump’s bellicose comments about the judiciary.”

What an idiot.
Doesn’t he know that the Second Amendment people are supposed to take care of bad judges.
“If she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks . . . Although the Second Amendment people — maybe there is, I don’t know.”
Mr Chief Justice Roberts, where is your rebuke for this ass hat? You know, the fellow you left off the hook with phony trial.

“Has he lost his mind completely?”
When I first read your comment I knew immediately you were NOT referring to trump; as it would have been too obviously rhetorical…

The difference between Donald Trump and Chuck Schumer. Schumer clarified what he meant and the fact that his words came out the wrong way.
