I feel good every time Sen McConnell speaks lately. When he says it, you know it will stick. He may not care a lick about Trump, but he will not let his legacy go down in flames. I don’t know if the majority party ever lost a vote for SCOTUS, but he sure doesn’t want to be the first. And he won’t hold a vote if he doesn’t have the votes. I get the feeling we’ll all be feeling good this weekend...

Should McSCOTUS be good for but one thing, his legacy would be insured.

He won’t hold a vote if he doesn’t have the votes.

*********************************

I’m not sure about that this time. Trump wants to force a vote. He wants the red state Dems on record. They have no intention of letting them off the hook by withdrawing him.

We are going to have the votes unless we get another act of treason like McCain from Flake.

But, we can lose Flake and still win with 50 votes.

"One thing we know for sure...a vote...on this floor...this week."

If you are correct, on the basis of that statement, he has the votes today.

Don't mean to put you in a vise...and he may already hold the Dem's concession in his hands. (If so, and not to second-guess him, one wonders what he paid for it.)
