As you may know, President Trump has nominated Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Do you think the U.S. Senate should confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court?
Yes 41%
No 42%
Unsure 17%

CNN POLL: 38% of Americans say confirm Kavanaugh; 39% say don't.

That's the lowest net approval for a SCOTUS nominee since Harriet Miers (who was also -1); even Robert Bork was +3.https://t.co/w5LlWgcJDr

It’s easy to see why @SenFeinstein was in a quandary here. It could distract from issues of executive power and women’s autonomy and is based on a decades-old allegation. Yet it echoes other veracity concerns and is, after all, about the rights of women. https://t.co/PolTejQ26a

Collecting the signatures of 65 women who were contemporaries of a student at an all-boys school 35 years ago necessarily takes a lot of work. and it was all ready to go. https://t.co/D4ZDHIXM6y

This proves Republicans who acted like they had no idea what Feinstein was forwarding to law enforcement yesterday were lying. They knew; they were just busy working to try to discredit the victim.https://t.co/7AYLolVzMa

A thread on the @weeklystandard versus @thinkprogress controversy and why it makes me worried about the future of fact-checking, especially on Facebook.

— Brendan Nyhan (@BrendanNyhan) September 11, 2018

It seems noteworthy to me that after the Federalist Society provided a list of judges who they believed would deliver reliably conservative verdicts, Mitch McConnell specifically warned Kavanaugh was least-confirmable and then Trump liked him anyway.

Lou Dobbs calls George W. Bush a liberal

This shows how extremely conservative the Trump cult is. Bush was very conservative by any objective standard.

Fox host Lou Dobbs called George W. Bush a “radical” liberal. It would be funny if it wasn’t yet another indicator of how detached Trump’s GOP is from reality. https://t.co/q2QDhYWcd0

— MarketWatch (@MarketWatch) September 7, 2018

Trump was wrong to attack Nike and wrong to note that they are his tenant (just more proof that he has conflicts of interest). Shouldn’t Republicans be upset when he attacks specific businesses? I didn’t think they would approve of that.

Asked about the Nike-Kaepernick controversy, on which he has been conspicuously quiet, Trump says plainly: "Nike is a tenant of mine. They pay a lot of rent."

Just like the NFL, whose ratings have gone WAY DOWN, Nike is getting absolutely killed with anger and boycotts. I wonder if they had any idea that it would be this way? As far as the NFL is concerned, I just find it hard to watch, and always will, until they stand for the FLAG!

Nike’s use of Colin Kaepernick is the single most polarizing use of an athlete endorser in at least two decades. Witness: 650 comments off this tweet. Never had a statement of fact get this type of attention. https://t.co/UbwuVsr9Yx
