Citing objectionable Trump administration candidates and lawless acts by the president and his team, Senate Democrats have slowed the process to a trickle, insisting on recorded votes for every nominee in a move that has left top agency slots vacant. It has also angered Republicans who accuse them of a new level of obstruction when it comes to confirmations.
In the end though, every democratic Senator can vote no and the republicans still win and the appointment is confirmed. What exactly do you want them to do?
When has that ever stopped the chuds from getting what they want?
It’s so fucking bizarre to watch your country be taken over by people who are proving every day that your laws don’t matter and then listen to Americans on social media insist that the law doesn’t allow them to fight back. Absolute cowards.
So glad to see the dems resisting. Oh wait.
Given that 0 of them voted for her, what would you have them do?
I’d prefer they set the building on fire
I would have them do what republicans do when they’re not in power- they seem to get what they want regardless.
Senate rules for confirming judges were changed. It only takes a simple majority now. Dems have been dragging things out and forcing role call votes to slow everything down, but there’s only so much they can do.

I mean, middle aged Korean legislators were in the streets grabbing assault weapons out of the hands of law enforcement?
So, what do I expect? Physical resistance. Throw a punch. Get arrested. Storm a building. Show up armed.
If you think the US is getting out of this without a LOT of people breaking a LOT of laws, you’re in for a very rough time.
I want them to roll over like a dog and pussy out. Def inspires me for the midterms.
Self-immolation?
They don’t have majority though.

I think in the past 2/3 was needed to confirm.

People need to accept that the rule of law has failed.
The law will not save us, we need people in power to take back control by any means necessary. We need to bite and scratch
Yeah Im sure you’d be first in line if it was your country.
