Trump told the aid standing next to, hand me the damn football! The aide then says "Mr. President, that's not what Mitch McConnell meant when he said "we'll use the nuclear option".

Can't wait for the libtard melt down as the Harry Reid option is used to push Gorsuch through.

Dog is going to explode Friday and when the nuke is brought out and there's not a damn thing he or anyone else can do about it. :lol:

I hope enough Dems realize that any president gets to pick qualified people you may not agree with.

Repubs voted for Kagan and Sotomayor because, on paper, they had the qualifications even though they were (and remain) very liberal.

Harry Reid made the gigantic mistake of using the nuclear option for judges below the Sup Ct, and that is paving the way toward Repubs extending it.

In time, both Dems and Repubs will have regrets if the Dems push things so far that Repubs go ahead this way.

The Demos accuse the Repubs of blocking Obama's nomination of Garland for the Supreme Court....
But that was not the same as what the Demos are doing now....
Back then the GOP said they wanted the next President to make the nomination ....
that was in March, 2016...and they had no idea who was going to be President. :o

The Dems didn't push the issue because they were 100% sure the next President would be Hillary, especially when they learned it would be Trump she was running against.

The Republicans should know by now playing nice with the Democrats doesn't work, there is no honor among them. Even if the GOP were to give in and not use the nuclear option and even let the Dem's pic the next Justice for Trump, sure as hell when and if the Dem's ever get the majority they won't hesitate one second to use the nuclear option to put in place the Justice they want. Telling the Dems it's not right because we didn't use it will only make them laugh.

The GOP has the opportunity to preserve Constitutional Law for at least the next 20 years by using the nuclear option, installing Gorsuch and then another conservative to replace Ginsburg in the next few months. Ginsburg has failed to show up to the court for the last three weeks after being found unconscious in the chambers changing room. Some close to her fear her cancer has returned. She's 84 years old and can't even find her way to the bathroom, she screwed the Democrats by not retiring a couple of years ago.

Garland was never going to be the nominee.
Had Killery won he would have been dropped in favor of a more far left lunatic.
All he was, was a place holder and possibly a sacrificial pawn.

Bingo!

McConnell already invoked the nuclear option when he deprived Obama the process of voting on Garland.

So if McConnell invokes the nuclear option again...so what.

The conservatards already have no credibility. They have the keys to the system and couldn't even repeal and replace Obamacare after voting to repeal it more than 60 times or whatever the number was.

Exactly, why wouldn't he do it?
