Even though Eric Holder, Schumer many other democrats initially had temper tantrums and threatened they would stack the SCOTUS and rule.

They are back peddling this morning because they realized it wasn't a good look.

Democrats shoot down talk of expanding Supreme Court

It appears as if Roll Call put out strategies of what democrats can do to stop Trump from nominating RBG's replacement. It looks as if they are following this...

Here’s What Democrats Can Actually Do To Stop Trump’s SCOTUS Pick



They are stopping all regular business (The democrats screamed about not being briefed on Russian election interference & election intel)

They cancelled briefings and are trying to gum up things...

Sen. Rubio Addresses Sen. Schumer's Obstruction Over Planned Senate Intel Committee Briefing [Video]

Next will be impeaching AG Barr & or Trump to steal time away from the SCOTUS nomination. I hope Turtle sees all of this coming.

The Dims start with Shampeachment BS again and Trump most assuredly wins in a landslide. Dims best hope to win in November is to keep blaming Trump for COVID19, essentially, keep lying.

If these people will gin up a phony impeachment against the nation's top prosecutor to try and get their way, what can and will they do to ordinary citizens if you stand in their way?

So the Democrats are going from changing the rules yesterday to playing within the rules today. At least that's a step in the right direction.

The problem with gumming up the works on procedural votes not associated with the vote on the SCOTUS nominee it keeps the Democrats including Kamala Harris in the senate and off the campaign defending themselves from opponents.

And the impeachment of Bill Barr?

The House can impeach Bill Barr but they cannot force the Senate's schedule. McConnell can schedule the impeachment trial in the Senate after the confirmation of the SCOTUS nominee.

Yep, old Joe just needs to keep pushing his narrative that if Trump had handled this covid in the right way no Americans would have died, not one. That should swing a lot of those fence riders his way.

I watched Cuomo for 5 minutes last night they are literally saying Trump killed 150,000 people. It is all they got.

There next move will be impeaching AG Barr & or Trump to stop the SCOTUS nomination. Stalling (like Flynn) is all they got...

Turtle needs to start the SCOTUS nomination hearing a little faster. You know they will take advantage of Trump being kind waiting until a Saturday announcement.

They live and die by their focus groups.

Sad.

"The Democratic Party has long made a habit of preemptively surrendering major fights with Republicans before they even begin."

Seriously, these mother frickers are whatever kind of crazy it is where their reality is not real,

The impeachment would originate in the House. They don't have the votes to ram that through with little to no investigation/discussion.

Cocaine turtle doesn’t even need to take up impeachment charges if they are clearly bullshite and being done to disrupt Senate business.

He can simply bring them to a vote and have them fail without a supermajority.

The Dems need to take the "L" and move on.

Politically Biden won't release his SCOTUS nominations list because they don't want the working class moderates to see how fricked in the head radical they are...

Yet...they are allowing AOC out of her cage even having a presser with Schumer. Think about this, they are so shaken up they are turning to the true party leader-AOC for guidance.

When I read this, this morning...

It is clear that DiFi and old school dems (Durbin) shot down the they will stack the SCOTUS talk. There is a party schism of old school Vs. AOC---- yet they are all one in transnational marxist globalism.

It's very telling that civilian Democrats think the hyper-partisan, power hungry, rule-eschewing congressional Democrats are not dirty enough.

Learned helplessness? The speaker of the house just said a few days ago that they could impeach the POTUS every single day going forward on whatever charges they wanted.

It's like stormtroopers writing about how the emperor was too honest and weak.

That should be inferrable

Are there black female democrats in the public arena who are not "fricked in the head radicals"?

The Praetorian Guard would habitually kill the emperor it nominally protected if they didn’t get the money or influence it expected from him.

See it coming? It is just what he wants. A failed impeachment right before an election. It is what he wants them to do.

The real Praetorian Guard or the star wars Praetorian Guard? I don't want to get my metaphors mixed up.
