Below link is to the Onion. It is known as a humor site. The documents are not real. when reading documents, do not allow sand to creep into nether regions. Yes, it is "fake news" but it is done as a form of satire.

Disclaimer 2.
The following is my official "commentary" on the link below.
"I found it funny. You may find it funny too. Mike Pence...lol."

To be honest it is about as accurate as any other main stream media news source these days.

Just to be clear, satire does not = "fake news"

Off Topic apologies and don't answer if you don't want to, I know some forum dwellers will make a huge deal of it.
Do you have some or moderate buyers remorse with Trump?

I don't like everything he does. Nobody is perfect. I think that he deserves some criticism.
I do not think he deserves the massive witch hunt that the media and the democrats are pushing.

I just could not bring myself to vote for Hillary Clinton. The biggest reason was the SCOTUS appointments.

Thank you for being brave enough to answer in a concise way,
Good night boss

Specifically, why not garland?
I'm sure after having Scalia, the most constitutionally ignorant human being to ever occupy a seat on the SCOTUS, having someone who actually followed the Constitution was a terrible threat to conservative viewpoints which in general despises the parts of the Constitution that isn't the Second Amendment.

What was your biggest concern about SCOTUS appointments? Serious question.

In a nut shell:
Just as you and many others would "probably prefer" a left leaning SCOTUS. My preference would be a right leaning SCOTUS. The odds of getting anything near my preference with a Democrat or Bernie Sanders ( whatever he is ) would be slim and none in my opinion.

I personally didn't have any specific issues with Garland. I do think he deserved a vote, but the house felt otherwise. I also think they were within their legal right to withhold the vote considering that it was in an election year.

Why not Gorsuch?

I would start with a POTUS who deals in reality first. Once that happens we can deal with the rest.

I hate to interrupt the infighting but did anyone actually read any of the docs?
Surprised no one said anything about the topless picture.
