 Mitch McConnell Did The Nation A Great Favor By Keeping Merrick Garland Off The Supreme Court

If there were a scintilla of doubt that McConnell did the nation a great favor, that doubt should have been put to rest during Garland’s June 15, 2021, speech on “Violent Extremism and Domestic Terrorism.” The ideological purge will make Lois Lerner blush.

Mitch McConnell likes to boast, including recently, that his most consequential achievement in his Senate career was keeping Merrick Garland from filling the Scalia seat after the death of the great conservative Justice.

McConnell, with a consistency his detractors refuse to acknowledge, followed historical practice and precedent in refusing to allow the Senate to take up the Obama nomination of Garland in an election year where the party controlling the Senate (Republicans) differed from the party controlling the presidency (Democrats). The confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett in 2020 was consistent with this practice, because the same party (Republicans) controlled the Senate and presidency.

In 2017, Neil Gorsuch — not Merrick Garland — filled the Scalia seat after Trump’s victory in 2016. So far, so good.

Of course not.

But what was the RINO Plan in 2015 for the 2016 election?

The RINOs were gaming the system to install JEB. 

McConnell was holding the seat so JEB! (and thus the RINOs) could install the next Roberts.

Surprise!!! Surprise!!! Surpise!!!!

Jeb! caught the Please Clap, Trump won.

That wasn't part of the plan at all.

I guess then, considering how the first Trump appointment couldn't even have the decency to review the election fraud cases brought before the court in the greatest vote fraud operation ever, maybe we should be asking who it was that provided President Trump with his list of nominees? 

Who really picked Gorsuch?   

Was that nomination made while Rince Penis was Trump's Chief of Staff?
