Yeah stuff like this article suggesting basically that Mitch McConnell did nothing outside of the norms and completely followed the rules. Just makes me so sad and annoyed.
Mitch McConnell definitely twisted himself into a pretzel justifying his Supreme Court decisions. You can’t take up consideration of a Supreme Court pick 8 months before an election because it’s too close. But if it’s actually DURING an election, it’s fine as long as the Senate is controlled by the same party as the presidency and as long as the Moon is waxing and the month ends in the letter R.

Stealing that seat was a dagger in the heart of our republic.

See? Totally an easy to understand rule!
It’s much simpler than that. Anything is fine as long as the party doing it STARTS with the letter R.
