You can't compare Kavanaugh to Garland. It's a completely different situation. I mean, Garland was picked by Obama.

The presidential election isnt right this second so blocking SCOTUS nominees for political gain is wrong now.

Whats wrong with that? Obama put two radicals in and the democrats acted like we should thank him. All president Trump is doing is balancing things out.

Seriously, democrats are acting like he should have chosen democratic justices or something.

Except Garland was nominated at the very end of Obamas presidency and the pick didnt fit the current sentiment of the people. It seemed only fair that Congress allow the people to decide which way they wanted to go. Trump has over 2 years left in his first term. Kind of pointless to stall unless there was something really wrong with the pick.

We need to stop acting like shaming them is going to have an effect. Pointing out hypocrisy doesn't work anymore. They're going to keep doing whatever they want and there's nothing you can do to stop it. They don't care if it's consistent or not because it doesn't matter. They have more power.

If I cared enough it'd be funny to save this post and come back to it when Trump is near the end of his term and to see if you complained about something being blocked due to him being near the end of his term. =p

Edit: reading this again I missed the sarcasm you must have been implying. Whoops.

The Democrats are doing what theyre supposed to do. Its like football and Justices are the points. When youre on defense you do all you can to block the offense from scoring points.

I dont think the Democrats have the ability to block it, but they wouldnt be serving their constituents if they didnt at least try.
