Trump thinks it would be a great idea if we just "get rid of judges".

He sure is confirming them at lightning speed, though.

I'm still not convinced he's getting the judges he wants. Sure some of his picks have a hard on for Trump, but what happens after Trump is gone? These are hard-line conservatives. They are likely to be harder on criminals than so-called Liberal judges. Isn't this the exact opposite of what Trump wants?

There isn't a huge pool of corrupt judges to draw on for higher office. Conservative judges join the Federalist Society. Corrupt judges? Do they have a support group?

Apparently, most of them are dominionists.

I think that Bernie has a LOT of baggage. The Republicans have backed off saying anything bad about him as they REALLY want him to be the face of the Democratic party. He might even get there. Not unlike the Republicans and Trump the Democrats seem to fear Bernie and have left him pretty much alone in favor of beating up on each other. Anyway, I believe, the Dems don't stand a snowball's chance of winning. I am not alone as a majority of Dems feel exactly the same way but have so split up their vote that Bernie is likely to take the prize. Its pretty interesting. The far left is delighted to only talk to one another and claim victory as often as they can. However, that being said, the numbers remain as do the questions.

My own thought is that after the Dems anoint Bernie the Republicans will go after him big time and its not gonna be pretty. The only good thing is that, perhaps, the Trump economy will start to collapse which would probably help the Dems (my hope).

Quick question:

Who’s the last democratic primary candidate to have won the popular vote of all three initial state primary races?

Just wondering if anything objective enters your world view. The more bent and unhinged conservative criticism becomes the more rational Sanders sounds in comparison.

It is worth mentioning that only 6% of the delegates have been committed.

That being said, things are moving along nicely, from my POV.
