Group of Lefty Millionaires Plotting Vicious Attack on Trump's SCOTUS Nominee

A left-wing group of political activists is planning to tear down the president's nominee for the Supreme Court, no matter who he picks. Their plan: whatever it takes.
The group, Patriotic Millionaires, penned an open letter on their website imploring Democrat leaders like Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, to "take a stand" and do anything in their power to "permanently discredit" whoever Trump nominates to the bench. (Emphasis included in original copy)
You clearly lack the legislative power to stop the morally-bankrupt Republican hypocrites in the U.S. Senate from confirming a far-right ideologue to a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court just days before the most divisive and consequential election in American history.
This unfortunate reality demands that you embrace the inescapable moral and constitutional obligation you have to use every power at your disposal to brand this corrupt process as the illegitimate farce it is and to discredit permanently the judicial fitness of any nominee who agrees to be a part of it. Any nominee willing to be considered or confirmed by this sham process is definitionally unfit to serve in the United States Supreme Court.
The group of activists, helmed by founder and president Erica Payne, describes themselves as an organization of wealthy Americans focused on "power and money." Their self-description says it all:
The Patriotic Millionaires is a group of high-net worth Americans who share a profound concern about the destabilizing level of inequality in America. Our work centers on the two things that matter most in a capitalist democracy: power and money. Our goal is to ensure that the country’s political economy is structured to meet the needs of regular Americans, rather than just millionaires. We focus on three “first†principles: a highly progressive tax system, a livable minimum wage, and equal political representation for all citizens.
