Mitch McConnell not allowing Merrick Garland to be confirmed was the start of democracy crumbling in the USA

It's just continued since.

Yes, you are 100 percent correct.

I don’t know whose eventual death will delight me more — Moscow Mitch’s or Trump’s.

They are both pure evil.

Yeah. Yeah. That was it. I wonder who did something like that first?

Thanks OP. Please die now, R2. I’m sure you have some fascist boots to lick first. Just drive your government funded hoveround over to the Daily Stormer. We’ve had sufficient here.

Why R4? You don't like hearing about who started the no lame duck hearings thingy?

I don’t like hearing your fascist propaganda. Bye, cunt.

I hope Mitch experiences the future he has earned and deserved.

R7 People like Mitch (and Trump) never get their comeuppance. Karma is a myth.

I never believed in karma. It's a nice thought and sometimes when a bad person gets a form a justice, we feel a sense of satisfaction, but karma is a mystical dream about balance in the universe, that we're not just existing in a world of chaos, but it's not real.

Actually OP I kind of think Merrick Garland hold a little more culpability because when Garland was actually given a post where he was supposed to protect democracy, HE CHOSE NOT TO.

He would have been an absolutely awful Justice and the fact that he even allowed himself to be used as bait (Obama selected an old-school Republican knowing McConnell could either confirm him or gamble on the next President who was widely believed would be Hillary and who would certainly appoint a liberal) shows how craven he is.

a one two punch - McCain was the first for foisted the "reality TV" style of politics upon the US in the form of Palin and Garland not being confirmed is the second

Garland knowingly sat on the case and slow-walked it on purpose so that it will be unlikely that Trump would be tried before the 2024 election.

There were so many significant opportunities to stop Trump. McConnell also opting not to convict Trump for his January 2021 insurrection attempt was the more obvious one. A president convicted by the Senate is no longer eligible to run for president again. The guardrails were there and nobody had the gumption to follow them through.

Cuz Obama was black.

And now McConnell is celebrating like it's 2016 all over again! He'll get to steer Trump to at least 2 more SCOTUS picks, (as his megaton bank account increases even more).

No, he won’t.

Turtle has already trash talked orange so he’s going to get out his knee pads or get ignored, r14.

I hope the fugly slob kicks him in the cuntbone

R15 The knee pads are back from the cleaners and ready for wear.

by Anonymousreply 16November 8, 2024 6:26 AM

R16 here. I'm so sorry. The knee pads were not at the cleaners. Finally, Lindsay Graham returned them.

They're completely worn out!
