Polls: Trump not trustworthy - no trust in judicial picks

Original post made by Trump trolls GOP, Menlo Park: other, on Jun 28, 2016

Perhaps because he declared an accomplished American federal judge of Mexican descent to be unfair? Called him a "hater"? (Pot, meet kettle.)

Poll: Swing State Voters Don’t Trust Trump on Supreme Court, Overwhelmingly Favor Hearings For Garland

"Overwhelmingly Favor Hearings For Garland" as our constitution declares should be happening today.

"Voters in all six states, by margins ranging from 5 to 23 points, say they don’t trust Donald Trump to nominate a Supreme Court justice. Voters in WI (34% trust Trump, 57% don’t) and in the home of Judiciary Committee Chair Charles Grassley of IA (35% trust Trump, 52% don’t) are particularly skeptical of Trump’s ability to name a Justice. [...]

Because voters trust President Obama to make a Supreme Court choice and don’t trust Trump to, there’s overwhelming support for the Senate to move forward with confirmation hearings for Merrick Garland’s nomination to the Supreme Court. More than 60% of voters in each of these states supports hearings for Garland, by margins ranging from 38 to 46 points"

Folks in the GOP don't trust Trump with their handpicked list of anti-women judges?

Me neither.
