Trump Insider: Judge Andrew Napolitano is Trump's First Choice for Supreme Court

[thoughtomator]

@libertyeagle - don't even acknowledge that guy. Put him on ignore. He's interested in nothing but playing his fantasy game of Dungeons & Liberty. Every question he asks is asked not for the purpose of learning the answer but to waste your time and sow confusion. He deserves nothing but complete, unmitigated hostility as the enemy of liberty I so long ago identified him to be.

Trump Releases his 7 Point Healthplan HERE



I wish he'd quit doing stuff like this.
It was far easier to hate and ridicule him before.
All I'm left with on this one is: 'He's prolly lying. '

Wow. Makes nominating Judge Nap seem like it could be truth too.

I am loving Trump vs. Neocons. It has softened my stance on Trump a great deal. Nevertheless, I could never vote for the guy. I do believe he is the least of the evils remaining at this point though.

That's fine. That's your conscience. No one is forcing you to vote Trump so to violate your principles. But at least you realize, he isn't this mythical monster that they've made him out to be.

I really hope this is true. Nap is almost as good as Scalia, and actually better in some respects.

Wow, really? Scalia > Judge?

I have you on ignore, so when nikcers quoted you, I had to "View Post" to confirm that it was true. That's an interesting opinion you have there, misterx.

My opinion? Andrew Napolitano would be great to run as a liberty candidate against Pres. Hillary in 2020. His bulldog demeanor combined with his depth of knowledge about the operation of government would make him a killer on the debate stage. I could easily see an angry, anti-establishment nation latching onto him.

I want to ask people on RPF straight up a fantasy scenario.

Trump comes out and says elect me and I will give you Rand Paul as VP and Ron Paul as secretary of state and Napolitano as a judge on the supreme.....would you still not vote for him out of a purity ideological principle ?

No, I would still not vote for Trump. I feel strongly that a loose cannon like Donald J Trump should never be potus with the nuclear football and CIC of the world's most powerful military. It would be irresponsible to vote for him. He could have a hissy fit on twitter with some 3rd rate dictator and start WW3.

In his ideology, Nap is far better than any other justice. But in his intellect, he's a lightweight compared with any of them.

If I believed that Trump really did consider Nap a good Supreme Court pick, I would consider it a big plus for Trump. But I don't. I also think that if you want a good libertarian justice, you need to find somebody who can be taken more seriously than Nap. But that's something that a president could figure out when they actually do the search for one.

@LibertyEagle Nailed It!

We can sit here all day and talk about the many, many things we disagree with Trump on. I feel he is a wildcard 50/50 that he will completely shake up the entire political system, and make real, meaningful changes in this country as president. On the other hand, he could be a complete trojan horse, who will finish the destruction of this country that the politicians of the last 60 years have done so well. It's make or break time, we are not going to get the option for a Liberty candidate unless this whole system is revamped. Watching the media and the criminal establishment attack him the same way they did to Ron Paul, just makes me like him even more. Ron couldn't overcome the firestorm and corruption that ensued, and no one outside the liberty movement even knew it was happening. I now see those interested in Trump actually taking notice of the corruption in the RNC, DNC, and the elite owners of this country. It's making people ask the questions of their government, who previously didn't give a damm and had no idea it was happening... This to me is a victory alone.

Not trying to sell anyone on Trump, I know how the libertarian mind works, and we don't like being told what to do. But, for me, I see no other choice

If you feel as if Trump is a loose cannon but Obama, Bush, and Clinton were responsible individuals who could handle the job, you may be suffering from battered serf syndrome.

 

[Cleaner44]

The skin you have...or should have...is 2020.

Are you prepared to create a GOP which is completely hostile to Liberty? Because that is what you get if you let this elephant in the China Shop. You can kiss the GOP goodbye foreever, just like the Democrats....and where does that leave us? Huh?

Is bland Rand gonna win hearts and souls? How about pudgy Massie? "Al-Quadas Best Friend" Amash?

Get real dude. We are on the ropes.

How old are you? Did you just get your voter registration card last year?

The GOP is and has been completely hostile to the cause of liberty. What were you doing during the 2008 and 2012 campaigns?

 

[thoughtomator]

@Cleaner44 - he's young, but I can tell already he will sound exactly like we do now when he's got a dozen years busting his balls for liberty and encountering the same bullshit we have behind him.

 

[jmdrake]

That alone would be more than we've gotten out of the establishment in 70 years of trying to work with them.

True. But I will believe it when it happens. Judge Napolitano would vote against President Trump on imminent domain, targeting family members of terrorists (like Obama did already), in Trumps fight to force Apple to unlock the iPhone and a host of other issues near and dear to Trump.

False choice fallacy is false.

Yes, his view on the 14th amendment detracts greatly from his other stances. On everything else, he's as good as it gets.

No, it isn't. The sheep keeping selecting the safe 'approved' choices.

 

[jmdrake]

That doesn't make the false choice any less false. In this context the false choice is the idea that if Trump is a loose cannon you must think Obama, Bush and Clinton were responsible. It's pretty much a given that the overwhelming majority of people participating on the forum, Trump boosters and Trump haters alike, don't consider Obama, Bush or Clinton trustworthy.

 

[Chieppa1]

If this was true, I would vote for Trump.

 

[ChristianAnarchist]

All you so called "liberty" types who feel that Trump is your choice because you don't want Billary consider this... How many of us are there?? How many on this board?? How many coast to coast?? Do you really think you voting for the Trumpster will put him over the top?? All of us together won't amount to 1% and if you think he's winning or losing by 1% you need your head examined. I'm predicting that (either way) this presidential election will have a 7% or more spread. I'm further predicting that the winner is.... Billary!! I'm not voting for them (they are a package) but that's the way it's going down because over 70% of the voters now either work for the goonerment or collects bennies from the goonerment and that, my friend, is the bottom line...

Keep dreaming that your "vote" for Trump will make ANY difference in the outcome...

BS. You can disagree with the Bushes, the Clintons and Obama on policy. But they weren't unpredictable and unhinged in the way Trump is. Nobody knows what the guy might do or say next and there have been no checks on him or repercussions for his words. If he was to behave in this manor as potus, he puts everyone at risk.

I think the Clintons are going to win too. The GOP has lost it's mind nominating Trump. All the remaining candidates beat Hillary in polling except Trump. So who do they nominate...

Looks like I will be voting for the LP candidate again.
