He unquestionably stole one seat, but not two; Trump filling Ginsbergs seat was a brazen act of hypocrisy, sure, but it was only a theft if you accept McConnells original logic that a president cant fill a seat in the last year of their term. It's a "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" penalty. Increasing to 11 still comes out to a net benefit to the GOP because the "cost" of stealing a seat was that they "only" got enjoy the rewards for... X years. Call it one for stealing Garland and another for a hypocrisy tax on their own logic for Barrett. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:955141755] in Politics C...
