      Refusing to even consider another party's Supreme Court nomination 'because it occurred in the final year of a presidency' and then rushing through your own party's nomination in the final months of the next presidency is itself a form of court packing.

      I am regularly embarrassed to have voted for you. This is just left-wing hackery.

          Obviously the Senate would have confirmed a judge in 2016 if the Senate had been Dem or the President had been GOP. But since it was split, they said to let the people vote and speak clearly whether they want a GOP or Dem type judge.

          Dan has already done the dismantling as have others. To say Evan has an argument is just dishonest.https://twitter.com/LJT_is_me/status/1307373442551906306?s=20 …

          Would having held a vote that had no hope of confirming Garland have made you feel better? They chose the optics of no vote over a NO vote. Deal with it.

          Replying to @Sterling_65 @baseballcrank and

          Uh, yes. A vote is held. Senators are tied to their vote and accountable to their constituents. Same issue with Senators being shielded from having to actually vote on hundreds of bills that passed the House. Let them vote and chips fall where they fall.
