I thought they did away with the filibuster for supreme Court nominees. I thought they tried to filibuster Gorsuch, and the Senate voted to abolish filibusters for supreme Court. And then moved on to the actual vote to confirm Gorsuch. That’s my recollection anyway.

On April 3, the Senate Judiciary committee approved his nomination with a party-line 11–9 vote.[96] On April 6, 2017, Democrats filibustered (prevented cloture) the confirmation vote of Gorsuch, after which the Republicans invoked the "nuclear option", allowing a filibuster of a Supreme Court nominee to be broken by a simple majority vote.[97]<

APOLOGIES TO ALL FOR MY MISINFORMATION!

Don't know how that slipped my moind, I was thinking of Reid's 'nuclesr option'.

AGAIN, VERY SORRY FOR MY ERROR!
