I think Gorsuch is more than qualified, and a suitable replacement for Scalia. But I don't really have a problem with Dems playing politics with it since Republicans did the same thing over Garland, who was also more than qualified. It's a stupid precedent, but that's where we are.


Dude, if democrats force the nuclear option and RBG dies under a republican POTUS thereafter, it will be one of the most retarded and counter productive political ploys in american history.

Why risk being completely powerless in that moment for a revenge play which are usually shortsighted in politics btw?

I get democrats are angry over Garland but they have to get over it and adjust to the reality of the current situation and plan accordingly.

Yeah, I have no idea why the Dems want to die on this mountain. Gorsuch is a very fair choice, they should take it and live to fight another day.

But they are Dems, if they force the GOP to nuclear I hope Mike Lee replaces RBG.
