It’s compete horse shit. If they confirm this guy then it’s just another instance of rewarding GOP idiotic behavior.
That’s apparently what our country wants to do. That’s where we live.
I fucking hate this.

I’d be kind of okay with them waiting exactly as long as Garland did and then confirming. I can’t decide if exactly one day longer or exactly one day shorter would be more satisfying.

Look, I don’t approve of what the GOP Senate did, but you don’t have any cards to play. It’s gonna happen. You gotta play this tactically.

Well, they could claim that because the dems won the national popular vote, there is no mandate for a conservative justice and that we just have to wait for the next national election. That’d be at least as legit as the Garland debacle.

Can someone summarise for me (or link to an article about) what the Dems could do in the Senate to delay and/or prevent the confirmation of the SC nominee? What numbers they need to do it, etc. etc…

“What have you got to lose?” I’m still shocked that he somehow received more than 0.00% of the black vote.
Holy shit, he manages to make a speech about Dr. King into a bunch of whining about how nobody treats him fairly. The guy is truly amazing.
It must kill him to have to stand up and pretend to care about Black History.

“somenone who has done a terrific job”
Does he think Frederick Douglass is alive?
And he sounds like a 3rd grader standing in front of the class when he does it. His diction is so off.
The Electoral College was put in by the founders just to prevent someone like him from being President. Sad!

The whole speech is even worse than that snippet.
I don’t think I can stand to read that.
Jesus, that was simply awful. Our President ladies and gentlemen, nobody knows Black History better than Donald J. Trump!
Looks like the “Days Without Being A National Embarrassment” counter will remain stuck at “0”.
