Cannot -- theres no check on this court. once it decides it decides. and i think the truth is that senator collins and senator murkowski are hoping that these hearings are kabuki theater in which people say just bland statements about supporting precedent and they wont rule and theyre able to skate by this nomination process. sxumtly a hard right conservative goes on the court and we could use roe in two years time in 18 states in the country. and i think the only thing thats going to stop that ...

The white house. theyre trying to hold on to two republican senators, lisa murkowski and susan collins, the only two pro choice republicans in the senate. it seems to me nominating a woman would help there. and joan larsen last year, just last year, when she was confirmed to the appeals court, she got 60 votes. she got 8 democrats to vote for her. 8 democrats. and so she would be the one who just in terms of the past confirmation vote performance is probably the strongest, safest one on this lis...

Today i owe kcon owday oconnor appointment. so he could maybe say im naming a conservative woman.oday day o. so he could maybe say im naming a conservative woman.day oconn. so he could maybe say im naming a conservative woman.oconnors. so he could maybe say im naming a conservative woman. obviously ronald reagan thought he was naming a pretty conservative woman.other thing is it would depend in terms of how much senators collins and murkowski were swayed on the woman herself. for example, if amy...

Democrats to justify any delay beyond the midterms. judge amy barrett, brett cavanagh, interesting, we will explain why that is key. the president is likely to get his nominee through because precedent has been set for a simple majority for confirmation. republicans who support abortion rights good for your that plan which is why in an exclusive the president stressed he will not be asking any candidate about roe v wade. he wants to secure yes votes from two pro-choice republicans. murkowski is ...

Finestein drew a lot of criticism for bringing barretts faith into the conversation. but that is something democrats are likely to be looking at. i think its unlikely democrats would be willing to move just because the president were to appoint a woman like barrett. that said, the big question here is where republicans actually come down. theres a possibility that murkowski of alaska and collins of maine, two republican women senators who support abortion rights could potentially oppose someone ...

Clock a half a century. and they cant just that settled law or precedent. they have to trust to get by, and it is hard hard to see that anyone on the list will get past senator murkowski or senator collins. it will be a real test for them on how serious their convictions are on the issue. it is almost impossible to see them voting for someone on that list. >> joel lockhart, thank you, sir. breaking news, president trumps long time attorney and personal fixer michael cohen is breki breaking his...

Conversation at all. one thing i should say is even though there is a presumption that a person would be against roe v. wade, i cant say everyone on the short list would guaranteed overturn it rather than opt for regulations and curtailments, right? >> this is a tough one. you will never know. you will never know until theyre in the job what they do in the margins or around the edges. >> certainly with the presidents history of appointing judges that dont do bha they thought they would do. we ha...

There, the decisions that have been made. president trump says thats the way he feels when it comes to same-sex marriage. do you think that will get her far, senator collins? do you think there will be a justice would fits that mold for her? >> not on this list. the list that we have is a list of conservative ideologues. every person on this list has been vetted by the federalist society to say they would be willing to overturn roe versus wade. i think thats why its important women throughout ma...

We would expect. this is how the gorsuch nomination played out. but in the end, both murkowski and collins voted for gorsuch. so thats the expectation at this point. but itll depend on how much discipline the president can keep in the next week. >> if you look at the polling, this is a kaiser pole. 67% of americans say no the supreme court should not overturn roe v. wade. among republicans, its 43% no. most people, most legal scholars will tell you they dont think the court would ever overturn r...
