If they were smart, they would take their licks and move on. They would accept that elections have consequences and that they lost in 2016 and 2018. Under the rules set forth by the US Constitution the President nominates to the Supreme Court and the Senate provides "advice and consent".
What happened to Garland is irrelevant. So if it makes you feel better to cry hypocrisy then go ahead, but if you are honest with yourself you know good and damned well that if the roles were completely reversed the democrat party would be pushing through with the nominee. Period
Now, will the democrats on the Senate Judiciary act with decorum and treat ACB fairly? Or will they succumb to their worst instincts and go after her based on her adoption and religion?
For ACBs sake, I hope it is the former. From a purely political standpoint, I hope it is the latter. It wouldn't hurt my feelings to see the Senate democrats shit their pants like Jerry Nadler did standing next to Pelosi
They won’t be able to help themselves. These are Democrats we’re talking about lol.
I made a similar point the other day: The Turtle would do Democrats a favor by skipping the hearings and accepting written advisements—then take the vote. Totally constitutional.
It’s nearly a given Democrats are going to insult Catholic voters at some point in the hearings.
Coup has started. First of many steps. Impeachment will follow ultimately~WB attorney Mark Zaid, January 2017
