I never thought McConnell would have the backbone to use the nuclear option.
Maybe, just maybe, the Pubbies are sprouting a spine.
I will have new respect for Yurtle the Turtle if this actually happens.
Sen McConnell.
Good for McConnell - can’t stand the guy, but he deserves credit for holding out some long, hard months last year & not even giving Merrick a hearing. I saw a story where he asked Trump early for a list of those he would nominate if elected & once he saw it, he decided it was worth waiting for the election result. Lately he’s been sounding tougher - I believe that having a real leader at the top (Trump) does make a difference.
I thought Schumer would be as bad/tough as Reid. I was wrong - Schmucky is not up to the caliber of Reid - a good thing. He’s still plenty conniving, obstsructionist & willing/able to do damage, but Harry Reid was in a class by himself and I am SO glad he’s gone.
