all I’m saying is that I don’t he’s the one who sets the timeline. It’s when will Cochran, McCain, & any other old bull left
-
decide that they’ve had enough. Collins is voting no regardless. So it comes down to Murkowski & the old bulls.

Don't dismiss MM's influence in a matter like this. He's an institutionalist an never wanted the nuke option to begin with.

could have avoided the nuclear option by cutting a deal on another 1-2 DC Circuit judges & stopped obstructing exec bran

folks I think. He’d have preferred avoiding it, but not enough to avoid a political fight that he thought benefitted Rs.

every time I read some of what he said in the 70s or positions he took, I am amazed at how far to the right he has gone.
