The Senate is controlled by Republicans. Elections have consequences.

Indeed they do. Unfortunately the elections have resulted in Repug quislings who have pretty much rubber stamped the Obama Agenda.
“Repug quislings”
Pretty much my concern. Obama submits Loretta Lynch for the position. As she had an easy time in her nomination to AG, the CBC and feminists will yell bloody murder is there is any delay. The Democrats can most likely enlist BLM and Wall Street demonstrators to demonstrate in DC and in Republican districts. The Press will love it and keep the racist, sexist Republicans front and center along with their “news contributors” selecting out specific Republicans to excoriate. Politicians can’t handle that and will cave, probably after massive electoral damage is done.
Quislings are war heroes compared to the turncoat Republican Senators voting for a Traitorobama traitornominee for the SCOTUS.
