United States, Trump Appoints Conservative Brett Kavanaugh to Supreme Court

Kanavaugh's appointment paves the way for a historic battle for his confirmation to the Senate where Republicans are narrow majority. And the signs are immediately clear: even minutes from the US president's announcement that the Democrats, led by Chuck Schumer, are declaring war. With Kavanaugh's "Obamacare and abortion rights" are in danger, the leader of the Senate Democrats sends an alarm.

Republicans are satisfied: the party establishment, which, on Kavanaugh pointed out, speaks of a superb choice. Former President George W. Bush, who appointed him Federal Judge at the Court of Appeal, takes the field: he is a "brilliant" jurist.

For the judge, however, now begins the difficult part: the meetings with senators go start immediately to try to ensure a confirmation downhill in the Senate. The goal of the White House is to get the green light from here on October 1, before the mid-term elections that endanger the already greatly reduced Republican majority in the Senate of 51 seats

. ready to fight: they already have it; made in 2003, blocking Kavanaugh's confirmation of a federal court of appeal for three years.
