Then do it through legislation like it was done beforeAccording to whom?The Constitution says "advice and consent". One could argue they "advised" when they told him to shove it up his ass.
Refusing to even meet with a nominee or give reasons why you object is not "advise"
I am not questioning the ability of Republicans to throw temper tantrums...it is what they do best
But for a party that wraps itself around the "intent" of our founding fathers, I doubt their intent was to allow Congress to do nothing in filling SCOTUS vacancies
Congress sets up the number of justices, not the President......they could reduce the court to one Justice if they wanted....
They don't have to...they have complete control over how they handle the court....as per Article 3....
