Judge Napolitano meets with Trump for a full hour

As I said before... I just hope he encouraged Trump to nominate someone with unquestioned constitutional credentials and that SCOTUS picks could change the country.

Yes, thanks for reminding us of how good Trump's judgement is.

Yea, his Attorney General pick is one you especially should like:
"Trump's Pick for Attorney General Is a 'Drug War Dinosaur'
Jeff Sessions opposes sentencing reform, defends civil forfeiture, and criticizes the Obama administration for letting states legalize marijuana."
When Jeff Sessions, Donald Trump's choice for attorney general, was nominated as a federal judge in 1986, one of the comments that got him into trouble was a joke about the Ku Klux Klan. A federal prosecutor testified that Sessions, at the time the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Alabama, had said he thought the KKK "was OK until I found out they smoked pot." Although Sessions, now a senator from Alabama, confirmed that story, in light of his longtime obsession with the evils of marijuana the anecdote reads like a joke about him. After all, this is the same man who recently opined that "good people don't smoke marijuana."

It says a lot that Trump is actually talking to people and getting their input, and that it is all out in the open.

Ya we will have to see, but in this case Sessions works for Trump. Trump thinks that medicinal cannabis is helpful for a lot of conditions, he thinks it should be legal medicinally, and he thinks that states should be able to legalize cannabis for recreational purposes.

I don't think Trump picked Sessions because of his views on cannabis, he picked him for other reasons that I believe are more related to immigration.
 
Making a bold prediction that Napolitano is eventually picked as a Supreme Court Justice. I'm guessing Trump doesn't want to be too controversial on the first pick, but a 2nd pick some years into his presidency seems more likely.

Just the fact that he spoke with Trump is not something any of us would have imagined, nor any of the other candidates during this cycle, minus Rand. I think even Ron Paul got excited on his Facebook feed referring to the news as **HOT!**.
 
Wow, I actually feel a bit hopeful. Haven't felt that (in regards to politics) in quite awhile.
Very, very interesting.

I like to point out that Trump is a businessman, and is likely treating this like any other executive position.
I'm not at the top at work. I do work for other people. Those people don't ask me what my position is on Java code. I will freely tell them, if they ask, that it's asinine and I hate it and it is largely responsible for the dark time we're experiencing in IT. But they dont ask because they don't care. My opinion is irrelevant.
But I do support a Java application all day, every day. Because that's the job.

Trump is already a successful executive. He knows how to set goals and guidelines for his subordinates. And he knows how to discipline them when they are failing those goals or stepping outside those guidelines. The point is, if he's hiring people the way he has for decades, he's looking for people who can execute his vision, not people who are ideologically pure.

I cannot imagine that Trump would hire people and not tell them up front what the vision is and that he expects it upheld.

The trouble is, he's talked out of both sides of his mouth so often, that none of us has the slightest idea what that vision actually is.
 
I haven't exactly been anything close to pro-Trump this election, but this is very encouraging.

It's not so much what he says to them, but what is being said to Trump that concerns me. If he's getting input from people like Farage and Judge Nap, great. I'm glad he's testing the whole playing field but if he really wants to change things he needs to ditch some of the folks he's lined up for his cabinet.

From what I can tell, the people around here who are as anti-Trump as they are anti-Clinton (or close) seem to think this was just another 2 wings of the same bird election.

If that were the case, the absolutely lop-sided coverage of the election (and it's results) would not have happened.

Whether or not Trump pulls through for the American people is yet to be seen but DJT is a WILD CARD in the purest sense of the term.

The NWO candidate lost the election. The Wild Card won. Soon we find out what sort of wild card he is.

Yeah, since billionaires, Goldman bankers and oil CEOs have been so underrepresented in positions of power that it's time for the little guy to take a break from running things under a Trump administration and let the billionaires, bankers and oil CEOs steer the ship for a while. :rolleyes:

I assure you the NWO is not shaking in their boots at the thought of Gary fuckin' Cohn as Trump's top econ guy. Did you know that all male CEOs of major corporations are freemasons? Female CEOs are wives of masons, too.

Wake me when Trump actually picks someone for any position that's not been part of the swamp for the last bazillion years. Meet with Rand, Judge Nap, etc? Great. But it's still just meetings and would be to appease folks like you into thinking Trump is anything other than what he's so far shown himself to be through his hirings.

Well this was unexpected.

A far better development than I'd dared hope would come to pass.

It is an interesting crumb of information. If this is just more S&M (smoke & mirrors), then we know just how badly hosed we truly are. I for one do not believe the S&M is quite that complete, meaning that hope exists in better measure than Theye would have us believe through the psywar they wage against us via... <drumroll>... S&M! It tells me that Theye operate on a far thinner margin of substance than the average man has been lead to believe; that the great majority of Theire power issues precisely from the psychological chains they have lead us to forge around our own ankles.

As I have surmised over the years, Theire hold on us is mostly vapor. It is reminiscent of the old notion of the elephant in training, who as a baby is tethered to a post using a rope that is flimsy, yet sufficient to the task. The elephant grows up with the belief that even as an adult it cannot break away, thereby leaving the mere string sufficient to keep the adult in place, even though all it would need do is casually saunter away at its pleasure. So it is with the vast majority of the people. The prison in which they live exists almost solely within the confines of their skulls.

The question now is, will Trump heed good advice, assuming it has been given?
