    Manu Raju Retweeted CBS News

    McConnell is now subtly making the case that the standard is that a president won’t get a SCOTUS nominee confirmed in a presidential election year if the Senate is controlled by the opposite party. When he blocked Garland, the GOP argued it was just about proximity to electionhttps://twitter.com/CBSNews/status/1048951220222812160 …

        I'm shocked! Shocked, I say, that a Republican, especially McConnell, would unfairly ignore the rules of law and the Senate to screw over Democrats and benefit his own party, then self-righteously lie about why he did it later to suit his new agenda.

        I'm not shocked either. That's why I paraphrased that tongue-in-cheek line from Casablanca when the corrupt police chief walks into the club and exclaims something like, "I'm shocked! Shocked, I tell you, to find gambling here!"

        And that's how it's done. There's nowhere near enough pushback on republicans when they say stuff. It's hard to have historical references at hand but bravo John Karl for doing homework!

        Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck McConnell. Media needs to start treating him as a man intent on destroying our democracy and institutions, which has been his goal for years. #VoteBlue2018 @StephMillerShow @frangeladuo @SueinRockville @bobcesca_go @JoyAnnReid @MalcolmNance

        McConnell just makes up fake rules. Until someone stops him by any & all means necessary, he’ll just keep doing it. Dems have to bring the fight, using lawsuits, filibuster, everything.
