      2. Harry Reid opened the door to today by going nuclear on non-Supreme Court appointments in 2013.

      3. Reid (who assumed Hillary would win) urged Dems to go nuclear on Supreme Court appointments.http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/harry-reid-if-gop-blocks-scotus-in-2017-dems-should-go-nuclear-again …

      4. Dems are basically forcing this. If you can't get someone like Neil Gorsuch confirmed, who can you get confirmed???

          5. on top of all of that, Gorsuch is replacing Scalia. This won't change the balance of the court.

          Not the point. This wasn't Trump's pick to make. Plain and simple.

          Amazing how Gorsuch is extreme, but Kagen, Ruth B-G are mainstream.

          Out of all the things the Dem's are pissed off about the election losing the SCOTUS seats is what upsets them the most.

          Gorsuch is incredibly right wing. That's an entirely reasonable objection. You could get a moderate confirmed. A Kennedy type.

          Scalia was apparently "incrediblely right wing" as well.

          Not to mention he's even less conservative than Justice Scalia's. God forbid the Dems can make more appointments.

          Forcing this? Where in the constitution does it say u can't have a hearing on a Scotus during a pres. election?

          the president can't put somebody on the court automatically, and the constitution gives no instructions for what the senate can/can't do
