Dear SDA readers, can we collectively put on our thinking caps and come up with likely lines of attack by the Democrats if Trump nominates Barbara Lagoa to the U.S. Supreme Court? What will they say to try to destroy her? Will they not worry how such attacks will be perceived by Latino Americans and other voters as well?
Update: SDA regular ‘Boots’ has recommended this discussion on this very subject.
They will claim that Trump cannot do anything original since Ogabe already appointed a “Wise Latina” into the court?
“What will they say to try to destroy her?”
Robert, please. You know they’ll say ANYTHING to destroy her. No lie will too heinous, nothing will be off the table. They’ll do -anything-. Latinos will be under the bus so fast they won’t even believe it. There will be rioting, murders and possibly assassinations.
Gloves are on the ice, they’re going to use their sticks and skates.
Got my popcorn ready. Going to be quite a show.
They will say that they have arrows in their quiver that they aren’t prepared to shoot…yet.
A paraphrase from Nancy, the proud Italian American.
Catholic girls…eh?
It will be a character assassination unrelatable to her heritage.
Something in her past, an action or an omission, some vague gray thing that can be spun. It only needs to be serious enough to swing Mutt Romney or the Maine Pain to vote against her.
Viva Frei had Robert Barns on his podcast tonight as he does every Sunday. Some good stuff here. He’s a huge fan of Barbara Lagoa, not so much Amy Coney Barrett. Skip to the 27 ish minute mark and he starts with legalities of this issue and if you want to cut to the chase around the 37:30 minute mark he gets to B. Lagoa.

Listened to that Interview. Very interesting, learned a few things I didn’t know. Had some misgivings about Coney Barrett already; what Barnes says makes sense. Thanks.
Careful!! Might give them ideas
“…Lagoa’s confirmation vote for the 11th Circuit last year had a much more bipartisan reception, 80-15, than the 55-43 vote on [Amy Coney] Barrett’s appointment to the 7th Circuit.”
You should be more concerned that someone who can get any support from the Cuban communists’ allies in the US Senate is being considered for the SCOTUS.
Why didn’t they already try to destroy her?
Hypocrisy is clearly not a problem for Democrats; nor is accountability.
After the last fiasco,Kavanaugh,nothing the Democrats say matters.
Nobody is going to believe a Democrat Accusation.
They may even find something real,but it won’t matter as the Democrats have lied for so long and gone so low in their slanders,that the public response of taxpaying citizens,amounts to “Meh more Liberal BS.”
I think you’re right. Look how another accuser of sexual abuse by Trump appeared and then vanished in like a single day of the news cycle.
Dems are worried about losing too many Black voters. They will avoid offending her ethnic background by concentrating on complaints that Pres. Trump is ignoring a Black judge somewhere, somehow, who is better qualified. IMHO. This tactic can be applied to anyone he picks, even a Black candidate who will be found lacking by Biden logic of who is “really” Black.
The Demarxists could call her a traitor to “her people”, by boxing her in on illegal immigration. Seems pretty obvious.
Then Kamala will question her if she knows anyone at a law firm. Oh yeah, she tried that before.
Crazy Mazie will say something stupid, Da Nang Dick will wonder if she can cook, Spartacus will be, will Spartacus, and Whitehouse will snarkily accuse her of a conspiracy theory.
Maybe she will be accused of being a party girl in college, a real PEPSI girl, IYKWIM.
The Dems will play dirtier and more outrageous, the Kavanaugh hearings will seem like a Sunday school skit.
Soon we may have #WhiteKarens attacking #LatinaBarbaras This is going to get crazy.
Trump could nominate the Virgin Mary and the Democrats would set out to destroy her. The lust for power knows no obstacle as far as the Democrats are concerned. The Democratic base is nothing short of a cult that cannot think or reason for themselves and the Democratic hierarchy are nothing more than NAZIs in clown suits entertaining their base much like the orchestra at Thereseinstadt.
Watch the death threats. Family, home, parents will be on the list of targets. The dems will be so desperate that they will not waste any time with just one angle of attack. Within a day or two of being nominated watch it begin.
Yep. The only real question that matters. Anyone, upon learning that their name is on Trump’s list, how fast do they get on speed dial to say “not interested, I saw what they tried with Kavanagh, Thomas, I am not putting myself through that”.
Anyone naive enough to think “they wouldn’t do that to me”, does anyone want them on the bench.
Anyone they don’t actually try it on, then it’s just another swamp creature, and who needs more of those.
I predict that the Democrats and their paid-for media cartel will attack the SCOTUS candidate for supporting the enforcement of the law against violent criminals, and for being sympathetic towards innocent crime victims.
They will find someone to accuse her of using heroin, cheating on exams, and selling her body for money back in her college days.
Barbara Locoa is the wrong kind of latina, and will offend all right thinking hispanics with her stance on illegal immigration, as well as her anti castro beliefs.
or some such.
They’ll lead with, of course, racist xenophobic homophobic transphobic white supremacist. They’ll also call her ‘not a real woman’. They’ll dig up, sorry correction, manufacture dirt on her family and how she treats co-workers. Oh, and a Christian fundamentalist who thinks the world is 6,000 years old, flat-earther and climate change denier. And I’m pretty sure they’re going to say she was a guard at Auschwitz as well.
So overall I think the Democrats will save the heavy stuff for later.
They are currently recruiting a pool of guards so that might not be part of their attack. /s
I thought I was a Barrett supporter … until I watched the video (thanks, Boots). And … the DM has already smeared Barrett by claiming she was a member of a Catholic religious “cult” that inspired The Handmaiden’s Tale (a vile show that is of the AntiChrist). That image alone makes her a DOA Justice.
So, go with the Cuban exile. And watch the pro-Cuban, pro-Castro, pro-Communist heads explode. And she appears to be more of a stealth-Catholic. A “third-world” Catholic more associated with the current Communist Pope than his conservative predecessors. So her faith won’t be quite as frightening.
I have been reminded of the VILE … and purely EVIL comment made by Dianne Feinstein about Barrett’s Catholic beliefs which she described derisively as … dogma. That video clip enraged me all over again!
It has occurred to me, Amy Barrett; were the Dems trying a long game? Were they laying groundwork, to try to trick Trump, into picking this one, only to allow it when he did? Was this an attempt at long game, to prevent the pick of Lagoa, which is “problematic” for them on many levels?
Lots of conservatives, Amy Coney Barrett, she was the first choice; simply because the Dems had attacked her circuit court nomination, thereby giving her “conservative cred”.
After analysis, the best choice (if it has to be female) would actually be Rushing, but that simply would not be accepted. There NEEDS to be that guaranteed 5/4 majority rule, because there are some important cases coming to SCOTUS over THIS election.
The best candidate left, appears to be Lagoa. Whom the Dems will attack, but looks like they will also have to accepted.
Play by the rules, as the rules currently stand, not by the rules you want to exist; or you will lose.
I’m with Grok
They can’t attack her Identity (Ethnicity, Gender, Privilege etc) so it will be all ad hominem attacks on her person and character, Edited clips portraying her as ugly, selfish, racist, whatever they can dig up and the usual interviews with anybody with an axe to grind and if they can’t find enough of them they’ll hire somebody to say she is a horrible person. And activate the mob to get as much negative publicity about her as possible. Demonstrations in front of the Whitehouse, The Supreme Court, Times Square, McConnell’s house, Lindsay Graham’s house with all the MSM present.
