    He poisoned everything. I will grant him that. He's sick enough it would give him pride to know that he did.

    Ginsburg bears part of the blame for the makeup of the court. She could have retired and let Obama fill the seat with a younger person.
    Maybe she thought it was good for her to hang on until she died. It certainly wasn't good for the country.

    It wasn't. But. If it had been Obama's last two years, McConnell would have denied filling the seat.

    Gorsuch whined that churches were being treated differently than liquor stores. Well duh, thousands of people are not gathering in liquor stores and they’ve tried limiting bars and restaurants too.

    Obama called her in and tried to get her to retire in 2013.

    Congress needs to pass laws with regard to the President's pardon power. No pardoning yourself or your family, no pardon shuffle with the VP. No pardons to obstruct justice on matters involving involving the President. No pardon power during the lame duck - if the President wants to pardon people he must do so before election day.

    Moscow Mitch would have still blocked. He only lets Republican presidents appoint Supreme Court justices.

    They’ve only gotten 79 percent of the appointments since 1980.That’s only a C+.
