Harry Reid set a very dangerous precedent when he did what he did. I’m sure he didn’t give a rat’s buttocks because he just wanted the power right now. He doesn’t care about what happens after he’s dead and the worms feast on his decaying corpse. A day which cannot come soon enough.
It was a deliberate play to pack the courts in the small amount of time the Dems figured they’d have the Senate.
Look at the three appointees to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals. Hard core leftists who flipped the majority of the second most important court in the US. Look at the impact they’ll have on the Obamacare subsidies case, which Conservatives won in the three judge panel but was immediately appealed en banc because the Dems know they now own the majority of the full bench.
