Cruz’s “filibuster” yammering is pure nonsense. The only reason a filibuster would be needed is if 41 GOP Senators voted for debate cloture on a nomination, which means Ted would have to be filibustering the GOP.
But it’s not going to come to that because there’s no reason for the nomination to even come out of the Judicial Committee, AND McConnell said he would a nomination to the floor for a vote anyway. Ted already knows all of this, so he’s simply pandering to people he thinks are ignorant and trying to puff himself up into a phony hero.
“AND McConnell said”
And you trust him?
