You might not have noticed it, but there's a current and very in depth discussion about Roseanne going on right now.

No shit! Is it breaking? I wouldn't be interested in it if it weren't breaking.

Jeez.  Judges are the only thing Trump has going for him.  McConnell nuked the senate to confirm them.  You're really going to be unhappy when the rats get control.

In November 2013, Senate Democrats used the nuclear option to eliminate the 60-vote rule on executive branch nominations and federal judicial appointments other than those to the Supreme Court.  In April 2017, Senate Republicans used the nuclear option to eliminate the exception for Supreme Court nominees, after the nomination of Neil Gorsuch failed to meet the requirement of 60 votes for ending the debate

Harry Reid nuked the Senate over federal judges and other appointees, not Mitch McConnell. I take it you are unhappy Neil Gorsuch is on the Supreme Court.
