The short list for SC nominees.....

Now you know why Trump will be your next president. The pubic in general is pissed off at congress as a whole.

The congress is so stupid, they still don't acknowledge it.

The GOP hasn't got the set that the dims do. The dims will lie, cheat, steal, be seen as complete and utter hypocrites and they don't care one whit. They don't even try to hide it anymore and the GOP still loses to them in D.C.! It's breathtaking to watch people ask for more of the same...

To illustrate my point we'll use their own words!

Personally, I feel like we are stuck. If the repubs block the nom, which Obama said would come during a session and not a recess, then the repubs look really bad, shutting down the court for a year.

The Court will not be shut down for being one Justice short. Business will continue much as usual.

IIRC, a tie lets the lower court ruling stand and doesn't set a precedent for other courts.

True, but cases will continue to be heard, and the majority of cases are decided by more than a one-vote margin.

Why are Republican politicians so much stupider than Democrat politicians?

They're not, you just disagree with them less, so it's more glaring when they go full-on dumbass.
