@DavidMDrucker if Cordray and NLRB were let through I assume threat would go away for now -
@ThePlumLineGS@DavidMDrucker expect same re: judicial nominees whenever GOP takes over Senate; assume u switch sides on issue again tho -
@polisnark1986
@DavidMDrucker meh. judicial noms different. I would oppose Ds holding up exec noms explicitly to stop govt from working -
@ThePlumLineGS @polisnark1986 Of course "stop govt frm working" is subjective. They would argue it's about it abt policy/advise consent -
@DavidMDrucker @polisnark1986 GOP blockade of Cordray is explicitly about getting dramatic changes to the *agency* -
@ThePlumLineGS @polisnark1986 What I did was present the argument. They'd probably pass a lie detector test, fwiw. These things subjective -
@DavidMDrucker @polisnark1986 my point is that the GOP's public explicit reason for blocking Cordray is wanting changes to the agency itself -
@ThePlumLineGS @polisnark1986 Right; that's pretty standard stuff, historically. Infuriating, no doubt & I'm neither defending/advocating. - 3 more replies
