my thoughts are that it’s obvious hypocrisy. it’s the same exact hypocrisy ( same exact) that Joe Biden showed, when as a senator when Bush was president, he said S.C. nominations should not be
made in an election year. then in 2016, he flip flopped. what’s your take on that?
up until the clinton presidency, the process of confirming S.C. judges was civilized on both sides. then the democrats changed that with bork and thomas. then harry reid changed the rules in filibuster and the nuclear option to serve his agenda.
if the democrats chose to start fighting dirty, tough cookies for them if it comes back to haunt them.
if you want to suggest that we go back to being civilized, i agree 100%. but both sides need to do it, not just the gop.
