“Without McConnell, you would have justice Garland instead of justice Gorsuch.

Further, senate majority leader McConnell has the power to bring confirmation to vote in senate or stop it as he did with Garland.”

That’s all true, but in my book, he’s still a worthless a$$hole who has not done nearly enough to help Trump with his agenda. He’s slow walking ALL of Trump’s judicial appointments, and If he had his druthers, he’d screw Trump out of the Presidency in my view. But as Trump gains results and popularity in spite of his actions, he’s been forced to do more than he’d really like to be doing.
Now, with the SCOTUS nomination, the fat’s in the fire for him. He’s now going to be scrutinized by the PEOPLE as he manages the confirmation hearings, so we will see what he does. But no matter what he does, good or bad, he’s a GOPE turd who needs to be replaced!

All true as well, sadly. However Trump is unlikely to choose his pick based on what McConnell wants. Trump will always be his own man, operating on his own instincts, and has been preparing to be POTUS for 25 years.

And finally, as much as I do not like the GOPe, and which is why I have been a Trump supporter for 12 years, they are not the real enemy. Because Gorsuch received less democrat senator’s votes than fingers on my left hand. Without the RINO senator’s votes, Gorsuch and Merrit Garland would be having a beer together.

The dems are slow walking, not McConnell. That is why McConnell has the senate working through August. That was a fake post.

President Trump has gotten a record number of judicial appointees confirmed for the time he has been in office despite unprecedented obstruction by the Democrats in requiring the full debate time on nearly every appointee - this is no small accomplishment and could not have been done without an extraordinary amount of effort and time devoted to doing. This not a debatable point. With all due respect this comment of yours is not even remotely close to being accurate.

Republicans confirming Trump's court nominees at record pace
