@William Rutherford well, Kagan and Sotomayor were more liberal than Merrick Garland, and they both got around 2/3 of the senate vote. Garland himself was a lot more moderate. McConnell earlier had actually suggested Obama nominate him as an acceptable compromise. This is just the most prominent of those open judge seats. I'm not saying Democrats aren't hypocrites, because they are too, but Republicans are equally as responsible. American politics just sucks in general.

There are no ifs, or maybes, or howevers in the course of history- you were wrong to stall Merrick’s nomination and you were equally wrong to rush in Coney Barrett’s- which could have easily less controversial if you guys hadn’t been a bunch of drama queens and just do your duty and do right in 2016.

Doesn't follow the gang all the time but goes by his own gut feelings and knowledge. Sort of the same league as POTUS. The best leaders because they're usually right.

The following month President Obama nominated Garland, a moderate judge from the D.C. Court who was seen favorably by many Republicans, including Orrin Hatch. The Republican majority Senate wouldn't even hold a hearing and Graham seems to dumbfounded that the seat was still vacant come January '17.

Traditional beliefs change with experience. Traditionally, he's seen democrats use accusations of sexual misconduct to block supreme court appointments 3 times in a row. It began with Justice Bork and seems to be a pattern with them. The system is broken. I think they should be vetted and chosen by the president, then promptly voted on by the senate. Accusations should be brought forth long before the selection process is started. Anything after that should be put in the basket of an attempt to "bushwack" somebody that somebody doesn't like. Accusations are like assholes, everybody has one.

We must not devolve into a totalitarian society that relies on anyone's word over solid evidence. I don't care who believes what.

MrDuds1984 No, I’m calling bullshit. You’re just wrong. When Trump nominated Neil Gorsuch (other than being annoyed over the Merrick Garland issue) I actually thought Gorsuch was/is a very decent, intelligent and fair person who actually possesses a moral compass. Kavanaugh’s nomination was a WHOLE different story. If you can’t see this, you’re extreme partisan views are obscuring any semblance of objective thinking.

I think the whole way Supreme Court justices are selected has to change. The present method provides far too much temptation to try to pack the court. This temptation was more or less successfully resisted for most of our history, but now it is manifest. A new method needs to be such that it makes it nearly impossible to pack the court. Then, the temptation goes away.

@Big AL Yes, but as He said Himself, He lost and Trump won and with the election being over as a mature person and patriot would do He said was going to help Him where He can, oppose Him when He must and generally act in the best interests of the party and the country. Yes, Trump's rhetoric can be a bit jarring at times and there are something I am not sure I agree (ex: Iran nuclear deal, North Korea ...) _ don't know, but I can't argue with His accomplishments overall. I have more respect for Lindsey how He was able put aside His differences and work for the good of the president, party, country. A man of character, a patriot
