Well, I’ll duck and cover after saying McConnell handled the Garland nomination well. Never got to a vote of any kind, in committee or on the floor. Shows the importance of Republicans being in control of the Senate.
Many of those same people were absolutely convinced that McConnell would fold on Kavanaugh's confirmation as well. Instead, he called in every chip he had, and twisted every arm he could, to ensure that Kavanaugh got confirmed.
And if not for McCain's last minute betrayal of the entire caucus, McConnell would have rammed through the kneecapping of Obamacare.

I think we all agree Mitch did good on that one.
But the other 99.99999% of his career……
You are correct- and Jeff Sessions handled the illegal immigration crisis well. But in totality both were buffoons.
It was too late in Obama’s term to allow him to pick ANY SC nominee. That fact would have stopped anyone from getting a vote in the Senate, in fact, that’s what Mitch said about not allowing a vote, too late.
If Garland’s nomination would have come up a year earlier then he would have gotten a vote and probably squeaked through knowing our stupid rino’s in the Senate.
I agree, incoming!
