[QUOTE="GoldenBoy89, post: 75357955, member: 316203"] Pointing out McConnel’s shameless hypocrisy. The problem is that the president was denied having his nominee to be appointed when a vacancy opened up in early 2016 and the rule that was invoked then to justify it is being ignored now by the very same person that came up with the rule. Rules that only apply sometimes or when the opposition holds office or when it’s convenient are not rules worth following. Such a move should carry a heavy political cost but the Republican voter base would first need some basis of standards for the leadership to care to follow. There doesn’t seem to be any that I can discern. [/QUOTE]
