        If this hearing does not inspire the young people of USA to want to change the way politics works, then that's the greatest shame. Privileged white men wanting their choice of candidate at all costs. Disgusting.

        What unfair treatment? They asked him questions and he constantly sidestepped or filibustered every single one.

        This is not a trial. It’s a job interview. And he’s shown he’s not fit to do the job.

        Love how Grassley was talking about delays and character but has total Alzheimer’s on what they did to Obama and Merrick Garland nomination.

        Grassley is prime example of why their should be age caps on civic duties. His antiquated remarks, grumbly old voice & stubborn loyalty to Party prevented him from doing his job. #VoteThemAllOut2018

        Just an illogical comment. It's about views and beliefs. Got nothing to do with age. Such a stupid argument to make.
