Anything she says is subject to emotional change.There is no rule about waiting.Why not win the Senate and the White House and do it like Republicans did?Everything in life has Consequences
Those consequences could be adding judges to the court or ending the filibuster
Another consequence will be an end of cooperation with Republicans
It can happen.
Then what about all those new precedents you lot set?
Like the judicial filibuster? No wait, that was you.
Ending the judicial filibuster? Oh, you again.
Why do you deliberately omit stuff?
Who ended the SCOTUS filibuster?
WHO blocked want was normally a pretty routine Presidential right to fill judicial vacancies in order to "save them" for their team (and no, I don't mean voting DOWN applicants).
WHO made up a new rule to prevent a president from filling a vacancy before an election?
and WHO reversed that rule 2 weeks before an election?
Those are MAJOR precedents and don't deny it. You know. If they weren't that made up rule would have held for 2020 instead of creating yet another precedent.
SO why shouldn't the Dems pack the court given YOUR behavior?
If there is, show me. Show me where the constitutional rule is that was ignored.
Coyote's whole argument is:
Coyote on Biden: You can't hold him to anything he said. It was just a "conversation."
Coyote on McConnell: It doesn't matter if Democrats never gave Republicans anything, he made a comment about election years and we have to hold him to it even under completely different circumstances than he said it.
Yes, it's that lame. Coyote thinks Republicans are responsible for every word uttered in every context imaginable and Democrats aren't responsible for a word they say ever. That's what she's arguing
