    Some Dems (like @CoryBooker) are starting to tie the Russia investigation to the SCOTUS fight: No nominee while the president remains under investigation.http://bit.ly/2MxZtSK

        Sen. Boker's argument appears to be very logical and rational, one most ordinary Americans can understand. So that means no Trumpsters will have a clue.

        CALL YOUR SENATOR AND TELL THEM! I called mine today and said no one under investigation should be able to appoint judges that will rule on that investigation.

        The most import questions, both substantively and politically, are "Do you believe Potus can obstruct justice in an investigation by the DOJ?" and "Do you believe the law allows Potus to pardon himself?" Will @corybooker ask and demand an answer?https://twitter.com/aterkel/status/1012439802619289613 …

        The nominee will just punt on any question that gets close to any controversial legal question, not just this one. And Dem caucus lets them do it.

        I agree that this is normally the case, but there are ways to make it a political mess for Trump and the nominee, which is really the only thing Dems can hope forhttps://twitter.com/nowherenorthere/status/1012446073640685571 …

        They should. How can we talk about lifetime appointment when entire govt is under cloud of suspicion. At very least, have a panel led by exPresidents tell us if there's real NatSec crisis or if it's Dem smokescreen. And if Congress can be trusted to proceed w/ any nomination

        This proposal could help make that clear to a few more people. I'm not talking the hard-line supporters - they're hopeless. But enough of the undecideds. We almost have the numbers we need already.25% still supported Nixon when he resigned. 35% Joe McCarthy when censured

        Please COMPARE what happened in WISCONSIN to what is now happening to the United States--We've seen this show before and it did not end well. I'm hearing too many saying this is "uncharted" territory. Not really. Wisconsin was the template. Step up Amanda! You can do it!

        Dems should be unequivocal about Trump's criminal ties to Putin and go for the jugular.
