Another woman for SCOTUS...

Do you suppose he's going to nominate a woman because he can't find a man that hasn't committed sexual assault? Hearings about that would slow things down.

He intended to replace RBG with a far rightwing woman all along. She'll be a worse justice than Boozin Brett.

Pretty sure there were reports during the Kavanaugh confirmation that he was "saving Barrett for Ginsburg'.

Most of what I'm seeing is predicting Barrett as the pick to be announced.

Of course women will, but only if she is qualified and dedicated to and supportive of women's rights. DT seems to look at everything two-dimensionally. To him everything is optics because he lacks awareness. He thinks women are creatures that belong in men's laps.
