It seems fitting to me that when placement on the court was a 100% political event, fixed by the party in power, irrespective of the suitability of the candidate, then the trappings of the office really don’t belong to him.
Sadly, optics aside, the power is his to wield and I have no doubt that wield it he will.
What’s the point of having all the goddamn guns if a few “good guys with guns” can’t even manage to protect some jackass while he walks literally 44 steps?
Were there threats? Or are they being cautious for show?
I don’t know.
my comment only applies to actual threats.
Are those security concerns related to his gambling problem, him owing money to unknown people, that he’s a violent misogynist who can be easily blackmailed or that he lies under oath? Or was he just drunk and in danger of falling down?
I’m sorry, but we are going to have to dismiss your complaint due to the lack of specific details. What are the names of the agitators? What did they do or threaten to do to you? When and where was the threat or action made? Do you have any witnesses? Could it have been a Catholic Priest that humiliated you and wrecked your life?
@ottnott wins the internets today.
I regret that you are right. But we can take at least some solace in knowing that he most assuredly wishes he could have all those trappings of the office he spent a lifetime seeking. Small solace, but some, at least.
Tena, my thinking is there have been no threats. The rethugs want to gin-up fear of the “liberal mob”. It fits their MO.
@valgalky23 Poor Kavanaugh. Denied his moment of glory because Roberts doesn’t want to be seen with him. 
You could very well be right. It does fit.
If I were justice Roberts, I wouldn’t want my picture taken with him either. Legacy and all that, you know…
Translation: They’re afraid someone will try to shoot him in the face.
Snowflake…
Could be something for the 2019 House to look into – a quick review of the threats directed at the court and of the security measures in response. We want to ensure the safety of SCOTUS and those who might be in or near the SCOTUS building.
Betcha $50 ol’ Sarah Huckster-Slanders and the Fox Hysteria people are gonna toot this very loud as to how them there libruls are coming with tar and feathers and y’all should be afraid, very, very afraid…
@dont great minds, etc…saw yours just after I posted mine.
Maybe Tucker Carlson or Sarah huck-San will invite him over for dinner,
Well, doing a keg stand at the top of the steps is kind of risky…
No, no, no - there’s an entire caravan of illegals within days of crossing the border, and some people say there’s even Middle Eastern Terrorists ™ mixed in with the women and small children. If they all get to Washington in time, they could be waiting for him at the bottom of the stairs!
He should stay in hiding.
Nobody wants to see this sexual predator.
