Huh
That was for lower court nominations. If there was a way for the Senate minority party to stop a supreme court nominee from being confirmed then the Republicans would've used it to prevent Biden's pick from getting through.
I said nominees not scotus nominees but fair point I suppose
I'm pointing out the fecklessness of the Democrats
Ah that's my bad, I thought we were just talking Trump's supreme court picks. I'm not sure what they could've done to slow that process down though for lower courts, Republicans in the current Senate were only able to slow down confirmations temporarily after Diane Feinstein starting shitting out her doodoo ass too much to attend the hearings. My point being that establishment Dems give us plenty of legitimate ammunition to highlight their uselessness/malfeasance, so it's counterproductive to call them out for things that they don't have any real control over.
