Well, March is a bit different than mid September. But yeah, they're all hypocrites. If Republicans try to push it through, will you admit they're hypocrites?



That's completely retarded and you know it. Republicans said they should wait so they could do the "will of the people". It's September, so shouldn't they wait, too?




Lol.

On most days, I think that you’re a useful devil’s advocate. Today is not one of those days.

If the Republicans go for it (Which, for the record, I don’t think that McConnell will. The man is all about precedent.) they’d be playing by the rules that Democrats wanted to play by in 2016, ignoring their own precedent. Literally called the Biden rule. Democrats agitated for it during Obama’s final year because they were too stupid realize that doing so while they didn’t hold the senate was a fool’s errand. It would be just as easy to say “we’ll try it your way. Hearing’s in a week.”, they would again have no one to blame but themselves because these are the rules that they wanted to play by.

And if you think that March or September is a meaningful difference? Well, the difference between March of 2016 and November of 2015 was wasn’t a meaningful difference to the dems four years ago when it was a precedent that Joe Biden set.

Tactically? This will benefit whoever exploits this better and Trump already ran this page out of the playbook the first time that he was up for election with Scalia.

In the meantime, STFU... You have the memory of a goldfish.

If there is life after death, I hope Scalia and Ginsburg are riding elephants together wherever they are now.

I'm going to place my bet on racism. Somebody who knew Amy in college will claim that they totally heard her use the gamer word one time.

Such, we will kindly remind them that the PM of Canada had worn Blackface in his senior college years.

What's the big deal anyway there's already enough GOP senators who said they're not gonna vote until after the election

Is that confirmed? Romney definitely, Murkowsi maybe, Collins maybe is what I've seen so far. But the Democrats need four defectors thanks to the VP breaking ties, right?

And now Schumer is making the exact same argument McConnell did last time... Why do you expect principles from politicians? :story:

I can't believe that RBG said those words on her deathbed. Its bullshit. Unless they have proof. And even then I still won't believe it.

The democrats under obama removed the ability to filibuster or obstruct a court appointment. Now all that is needed is a simple majority vote from the senate to confirm a candidate.

The "nuclear option" would be Cocaine mitch ramrodding a candidate through before the election, all while telling democrats to suck his dick because there is fucking nothing they can do to stop him, and they are the reason they dont have those tools anymore.

Yeah I remember it was mentioned in a thread somewhere, but essentially the dems fucked themselves cause they believed they'd be winning forever. Mitch warned them that if they went through with it, they'd regret it. Guess he was right lol.

It's been a while, but I remember it was this satirical article that portrayed Cocaine Mitch as some herald of darkness that was supposed to clown on him, but everyone was posting that it made him sound badass. Can't find the thread but it'd be fun to read it again.
