    There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

    If Judge Nap has an influence on the next Supreme Court pick, that is a win for liberty.

    His SCOTUS pick will come from Heritage.
    “I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul

    Just having him invited to talk, about anything regarding government, is a win.

    Outside of Randal, that is more than any other members of the 2016 GOP clown show would have been willing to do.

    One more reason why I am now in "Cautious Optimism" mode WRT to Trump.

    Shepard Smith is about to talk to Judge Nap - "next" he said (3:33 pm eastern)

    update:
    Some of the things they talked about - The process of finding a judge that thinks like Scalia.
    Judge Nap says he doesn't know if he's on the list, but he expects there will be an announcment within two weeks. Also discussed economic regulations and how they come from unelected agencies who act as "lawmaker, law giver, law enforcer and judge" all in the same agency. Said Trump's mood was "ebullient". Trump asked him which previous presidents and had the most influence on the court - Judge said Nixon, and even moreso, FDR who appointed two of his friends.

    LOL with small bills! But seriously, this seems like great news. Trump must have been very impressed with their last meeting. No surprise.

    Serious question for y'all: Does this mean that Judge Nap is thought very highly of by Ivanka and Jared?

    +rep. That was a great interview. Went from about 3:40 to the end of the show, through 2 commercial breaks. I heard that as well, Judge declined to say whether he was under consideration or not. He also said there is one person being considered who is not on the list that has been made public. Hopefully someone puts up the tube.

    He's got quite a mixed bag. No doubt we'll be seeing one of the most schizophrenic administrations in history, lol.

    I'm just surprised Trump actually asked serious questions. It sounds like their conversation was a bit deeper than just talking about the weather.

    Trump is an educated man. My guess is the judge would not have accepted another invitation if the first meeting did not go well.

    Trump had two meetings with several people (e.g., Tillerson) whom he then went on to hire. Nap is now in that company, so let's see what happens.

    Talk is cheap, the question is whether any of this talk is going to amount to anything. Remember he also had 2 long talks with Romney but nothing came off it.

    I doubt this is anything other than a photo op to the liberty wing of american politics but just like the elections, I hope that I am wrong again.

    The fact that he had another meeting with Judge Napolitano is a great thing which I frankly never thought I would see if you asked me a year ago.

    Every true Patriot would agree that the Judge is a defender of our rights.

    That Trump sees this and acknowledges it is a great thing for our rule of Law in this country

    Do I think he will nominate him for the Supreme Court? No.

    But Trump has continued to surprise me, so who knows.

    Holy $#@!ing $#@! if true.

    ETA:

    The Judge didnt answer whether he was on the list.

    Nor does he appear on the list:

    Its still nice to know that Trump is turning to the Judge for advice, awesome actually, but it doesnt seem like the Judge will be nominated.

    I watched the video. I must say it sounds really encouraging. Even commented saying just that. Maybe Trump will continue to look to the Judge for advice, in fact I wouldn't be surprised at all. But IMO he won't nominate him.

    SCOTUS really is the main thing as far as what I'm personally interested in changing. So this is particularly encouraging.
