Re: Diomedes said the Courts, Health Care, and Climate Change are his 3 issues.
But anyway, the fact that Trump isn't making hay over the Supreme Court and the gun issue being in the balance (now 4-4!) is beyond me. He should be slaughtering her on this issue. He seems clueless. He really can't bet her easily in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Colorado, Florida, and North Carolina just on this one issue alone?
It is still too early to predict the outcome of the election. But as of lately, Trump is averaging about one serious gaffe today each of which seems to cost him some support. Lots of fairly prominent, lifetime republicans have indicated that they intend to vote against him.
But Trump is simply not in any position to nominate what I would consider an acceptable replacement for say, Ginsberg who will almost certainly retire during the next term.
In the courts, Hillary getting elected in 2016 will guarantee a GOP win in 2020, so I fail to see how that will help you get your picks
Really? I'll take my chances.

n Climate Change, Trump is an unknown on that issue. He has only said that he will support policies that keep the 55,000 coal miners employed
Trump is a denier of climate change and he hates windmills. Where do you get the idea that Trump's position on climate change is unknown?
