By doing the job that they're supposed to be doing? |

Strange. I never heard the Huffers complain about how the SC for the most part maintained the status quo of the general antipathy towards the Second Amendment from the government. Heller and a few others were the ones that got away. But otherwise, "Pick up that can, citizen the Supreme Court upholds it". |

Supreme Court nominations are not always cakewalks, however, as cases such as Harriet Miers and Robert Bork (and Clarence Thomas) attest. There are several potential risks to Trump and Republicans: Trump could nominate a relatively moderate justice, in an effort to keep Collins and Alaska's Lisa Murkowski on board and to put maximum pressure on red-state Democrats, but then face a backlash from conservatives. Trump could nominate someone very conservative, but at the price of actually putting votes such as Collins's and Murkowski's at risk and of turning off swing voters. Trump could nominate someone who had vetting issues, or someone who triggered a debate about qualifications, or someone who was seen as too much of a political crony. Historically, these sorts of justices have had trouble getting confirmed. |

Talk about the Supreme Court imposing it's will, having federal marshals arrest a Kentucky official for refusing to issue gay marriage licenses? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Contradicting philosophies shouldn't join forces. Roe is contrary to the pursuit of life and liberty, while the 2A protects life and liberty. Both are about freedom of choice. Nobody is making you get an abortion. Taking away the option is actually less freedom. Until we're in agreement on when life begins, we aren't going to agree on the abortion debate. I doubt that the nation will ever agree on that, given the various religions/lack of religious beliefs out there. |

I'll believe it when we start getting some wins. With almost no exceptions I've seen an unbroken streak of more and more gun control my entire life. Trump has rolled back a small number of Obama's gun control measures, while imposing several of his own new ones. He's been a wash at best so far. Now the NRA has declared absolutist 2A supporters "the enemy within" while engaging in a campaign of compromising and losing on purpose.
The lower courts openly ignore Heller and MacDonald, while citing dissenting opinions as case law and Mother Jones as a source of data. Republican politicians almost all treat gun owners like Democrats treat black people: they say they support us, but then sell us out time and time again while smirking and saying, "would you rather take your chances with the Democrats?" We're pinning our hopes on a couple of wealthy upper class judges with the best healthcare dying in the next few years, AND being replaced by judges who each must hold the 2A in higher regard than their predecessors did. |

Seriously though, the Democrats will pull every trick in the book to block Trump from getting a nomination through before the next elections. Politics, Politics never changes. |
