Every vote has been along party lines. They need to just invoke the nuclear option and be done with it.

..and no one watches or pays any attention to them.

As Rush said over 25 years ago, with the Left it’s “Style over Substance”, they do stupid stunts to show “solidarity” and “concern” for the crisis du jour..............

We could have done this 3 weeks ago and already have the EPA gutted. I don’t understand the dawdling around and dilly dally. It is total bull crap that we don’t have Gorsuch seated and voting on SCOTUS and I heard that these Rinos and not even going to START with his processing until MARCH 27. Why don’t you come back from your unearned paid vacations and just nuke him in and cut the crap. WE WON THE ELECTION!!
