This is payback against McConnell

Republicans set the rule here. Have to have an election first.

Agreed -

I suppose the DEMOCRATs would have liked it better if he had held hearings and then paraded a never ending line of liars to claim that Garland was a pedophile, rapist, plastic straw distributor, ISIS sympathizer, ponzi scheme operator, etc. and then voted him down and moved to impeach him from his current office.

THAT would be following the DEMOCRAT procedure.

Instead, he merely followed the BIDEN precedent and deferred to allow the nation to select the direction of the SCOTUS.

and I didn't like it at the time - on a purely 'process' standpoint, but the DEMOCRATs have trashed all sense of fairness for so long that I finally came to the conclusion = "it's about time we come out on the right side of at lease one of these confrontations.'

Manipulating the Procedural Processes is quite different than launching a National, personal SMEAR on an otherwise extraordinarily good individual.

What else is new. They all know that Obama "wiretapped" Trump...and that Hillary cheated Bernie. It's gloves off. Just a matter of how long before the Rule of Law/Equal Justice principle is abandoned, and whether it ever comes back.

Michael Moore thinks Trump "is the last President"; He may be right, thanks to Him and His Commie Rev Ilk.

Yeah, there's a bit of a difference between midterm congressional elections, and a POTUS election.

You know that. Don't be obtuse.

He shut down any hearing for Garland until after the election. Democrats are now doing the best they can to hold until after mid terms. When will Congress stop acting like 9 year old kids? This bullshite is lame.

No, it's so vulnerable "Red State" Democrats don't have to make a hard vote. Voting against Trump's pick would have consequences to their re-election campaigns.

You don’t live in the real world.

They would have acted the same way. What was Clarence Thomas a payback for? Bork?

Or Sotomoyer or Kagan?

Weak arse payback. She’s a pussyhat wearing Bernie bot, and he has dozens of women ready willing and able to testify that he is a gentleman. This is just a delay because it’s PC to pretend that women don’t lie, but both sexes know they do.

On SCOTUS before elections.

Hope he remembers the libtard treatment he got! Thomas remembers!
