Noteworthy also because McConnell's whip, John Cornyn, is interviewing for the job

kudos to McConnell for giving preference to non-partisan Garland over partisan Cornyn (his Whip!). McConnell should have scheduled hearing
-
for Garland SCOTUS last year. Glad he is making a better call this time (amends?)
-
Uh, you realize they just want to open up his seat on the court, right?
-
Exactly.
-
Yes. Always an ulterior motive. There is no bigger snake in Washington than McConnell. Fools keep electing him.

They don't love Merrick Garland, they just want to own his current position as Chief Judge of the DC US Court of Appeals. Really transparent

He must really hate Merrick Garland.
-
No, he really hates O and all that he stands for. Don't do it Merrick. It will tilt the court.

Ha, right. Trump would probably fire him a week after being confirmed as FBI Director, leaving him without his spot on the DC Circuit Court

The ONLY reason the Turtle would support Garland is Dems vowed not to vote for FBI replacement until IC in place. If Dems refuse Garland

Turtle marched to podium to condemn Dems for not voting for someone they adored for SCOTUS. Brian Schatz (HI) called it a trap. He was right
-
doesn't take a lot of brains to see Garland giving up current seat for SCOTUS seat is much better trade than doing so for FBI Dir. seat
-
Should have said: "would have been a much better trade"

It's not a fantastic idea. We don't want a federal court seat to open up, for DT to appoint. Keep Merrick on the bench.

Ha ha...Of course he does. One more conservative on the bench. But why would he do it? What incentive is there be to join this clown car?

Too bad Garland is going to say, "No thanks - I prefer my job for life vs. working for a discombobulated administration."

Of course he does. Allows Trump to appoint someone more conservative to D.C. Circuit.
