This is such a weird counterfactual. Republicans weren’t thinking about Trump noms in 2013, either.https://twitter.com/davidmdrucker/status/997219843685453826 …

I figured it was implied. Had that consideration been made, the power to oppose the next R president, who turned out to be Trump, would have been preserved. (I don't say this argumentatively.)

The consideration was made — but no one expected Trump. Harry Reid wasn’t thinking about Donald Trump in 2013. Nor was McConnell. They were thinking about Hillary and Marco or something. There were norms implied. They were thinking about the future — and the past.

That’s not at all to say, substantively, that it was the right decision or a smart move.
