        What we have here is an OpEd. One written by a person attempting revisionism. But then, Trumpsters see nothing wrong with "alternative facts", because "truth isn't truth". I didn't find a single mention of Merrik Garland, and that invalidates the entire premise.pic.twitter.com/FOZUIn6gYr

        It really defies all logic to say that Democrats weaponized the judiciary. Merrick Garland anyone?

        Incredible essay. I spent 90% of this piece asking myself: how is this about the Democrats? Then, it finally came, the twisting of reality to play to the ignorant. Garbage work, you described exactly what McConnell has been doing and then blsmed the Democrats.

        Guess what genius, the republicans weaponized SCOTUS when they refused to let a black president appoint a justice.

        Republicans refused to meet with a centrist Supreme Court nominee from a Dem President, jam through lower court appointments rated "unfit," yet them Dems are the problem? Get outta here.

        Did the GOPers regret weaponizing the judiciary? Take a look at @SenateMajLdr and all of his victory laps after his obstruction last session! It's a resounding "NO", they don't regret a thing! They're ebullient! Dems should follow the GOPers lead & dose 'em w/ their medicine!

        I believe your reporting is wrong. From where the American sit, it is the Republicans who have weaponized these committees. It is also the Republican party that has as Billy Graham said, used the Evangelical movement to advance their political rule by punking them w/flowery words

        Trump has already weaponized the judiciary for his own use against people to take away their rights.
