And just in time for the mid-terms! They had/have an opportunity to regain many seats, which is actually typical during the first mid-term of a presidency. But they want to push to keep the Russia crap going, and polls show most of America is done with it. Standing up for ILLEGAL immigration, all the fighting and violence they are spreading and supporting, kicking folks out of public places for no reason - growing. Wanting to abolish ICE and immigration laws many want as well. You don't see the democrats out there responding in any manner and some supporting & most being lead by their dummy supporters. There doesn't even actually appear to be any type of leadership on their side at this point. I stated a long time back that they WOULD regain the senate lead, and house, just a matter of how many the right can save at this point. But now I think the numbers won't be so harsh.
And going into the mid-term, my bottom dollar states that we will have yet another SC justice nominated and voted in by that time.
And as a result, folks are actually sending Ginsburg all kinds of healthy foods and vitamins! LOL
IF Trump wins a 2nd term, and if he's there for another 6 years - Ruthy is already 85 years old. The oldest justice ever, I believe, going off of memory, was actually 90 years old. So 'ol Ruthy will need to set a living record to remain a SC justice until, hopefully for the white knuckled democrats, that a Dem gets voted in next. The right is already going to have the swing vote very easily now with a new conservative vote. Imagine a 3rd nomination for Trump? Even with a 2nd it's going right for quite some time. Get a 3rd and the right is in the drivers seat - of a jet!
I would love to see things go a tie and see Pence walk into the room & give a thumbs up! :)
Oh, and BTW, any calls to reduce illegal immigration or to abolish ICE is simply asinine.

Vice President Pence blasts calls to abolish ICE, calls agents 'heroes'
WASHINGTON — Vice President Mike Pence on Friday offered unqualified support for the government’s front line officers in the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement efforts in the face of calls for the abolishment of Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“We are with you 100 percent,” Pence said during a visit to ICE headquarters. “We will always stand proudly with our brave heroes of Ice and the Border Patrol.
"Under President Trump, we will never abolish ICE.”
Pence’s appearance along with Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen comes as the Trump administration has been engulfed in controversy for separating young children from their undocumented parents as part of a "zero tolerance" border enforcement policy.
President Donald Trump abruptly halted the policy last month under mounting political pressure. The government now faces court-ordered deadlines to reunite nearly 3,000 children with their parents.
"The calls for abolishing ICE are not only outrageous, they are irresponsible," the vice president said.
Pence said increasing public criticism against the agency was even putting officers and their families at risk, asserting that the agency was being "attacked and demeaned... at an unprecedented rate."
"These attacks against ICE officers and their families must stop and must stop now," he said.
He specifically cited Democratic lawmakers, including Sens. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, saying their calls for shuttering the agency were "spurious" and "must stop." He said the calls to abolish the 20,000-person agency responsible for apprehending undocumented immigrants in the interior of the U.S. have spread far beyond the "radical left."
"The truth is that opposition of ICE has moved to the center of the Democratic Party itself, just when you thought the Democrats couldn't move farther to the left," he said.
Pence’s remarks drew applause from agency staffers gathered in an office studio.
