McConnell says a nomination is DOA. Of course, the Senate Republicans have a history of crumbling...but if Trump holds them firm, then Obama is just wasting his time telling the MSM about the type of Justice he is going to select. It's like a little girl, in a very serious manner, explaining to her parents what color Unicorn she is going to get from Santa Claus.
Obama should be a lame duck...and Trump should put him in his place - even if the Republican controlled Congress is too frightened to do it themselves.
Kabuki theater is not “crumbling”. It’s collusion while starting off with a transparent front of making a stand. The only thing that the GOP-e is “frightened” of is actual conservatives, which is why they attack them at every turn.
