I know Turtle gets a lot of flack, but praise God he held off the vote on Merrick Garland for the Supreme Court. Garland is a liberal disaster.
^ This why the GOP are losers. The left calls average Joe conservative “fascists” while dummies on the right call actual fascists, like Merrick Garland, “liberal.” Stop calling commies and fascists libs or liberals! You are aiding the left by doing so!

Demon possession? Drugs in the water supply? Bribery? Or maybe they are just stupid.

If I were a Senator I would confirm every one of the opposite parties nominees unless they were totally criminal, insane, etc.
I think we have too many people requiring Senate Confirmation, it's in the hundreds. Talk about all the time this takes up. I mean, the US Ambassador to Papua-New Guinea has to be Senate approved....I mean....really now?

So you were against the insurrection to over turn a Supreme Court nomination?

The Rs are more concerned with whether their kids get to run in the DC cocktail circuit and their post DC lobbying jobs.

It has become very clear not many on TD knows what a Liberal is. Liberals are a dying breed. Most TD Poli Board posters would actually like a real Liberal.

There was no vote held on Garland's confirmation.

Garland is not a fascist. Fascism is a nationalist movement.
He's an ethnic activist. They can use communism, capitalism, courts, bureaucracy etc to achieve their goals.

A lot of this. Jeffrey Epstein and Mossad also hold a lot of blackmail on many of them.

It appears the threat of being primaried doesn't resonate with these people.....

It was like that with Obama’s Supreme Court appointments. They were confirmed with vote counts of 68 and 63. The Republican appointments under Trump barely got by in the low 50s with no Democrat support.

Because the national GOP is a worthless group of money hungry PACs who are only focused on taking payoffs and getting rich.

Remember, Merrick Garland was a moderate jurist when Obama picked him to replace Scalia in early 2016. It was McConnell's dishonorable treatment of him that hardened his mainstream Democratic resolve as of late.
