Trumps nominees sail.

Most will. Some will have holds placed on them. All will be put through hearings designed to embarrass them and smear them. And I expect the Supreme Court nominee will be filibustered, at least for a while, in response for Merrick.

They will be Thomased.

And if the dems can go nuclear on the lower courts, we can do so on the SC.

I give up on bipartisanship. Whoever is in charge runs things. Period.
