Shageletic posted:Maybe I exaggerated but apparently a few Dems in the Senate were blabbing about allowing Gorsich (a man more conservative than Scalia) in, to preserve the filibuster for the next judicial appointee. some unnamed dems allegedly did this, but it was only six and with no leadership support so they couldn't actually break the filibuster anyway I'm still going to be calling my D Senators to yell at them to filibuster Gorsuch, but there were a ton of hot takes based on an intentionally click-baity headline yesterday.

Perfectly Safe posted:Are there Rs opposed to the AHCA for good reasons (causing people to lose insurance) rather than bad ones (doesn't go far enough)? I've heard a lot about the latter. I feel like/seem to remember that there are some who are opposed to it for good reasons as well, but team evil are getting a lot of attention at the moment. Charlie Dent and some of the Tuesday Group

Shalebridge Cradle posted:We can't filibuster because then we might not be able to use the filibuster. This doesn't matter at all. Either they filibuster and the republicans immediately go nuclear or they filibuster later when the republicans immediately go nuclear. There is no mechanism where we can stop or even delay/change the nominee for a supreme court justice unless we get another 5 senators.

Besides, 2016 showed that anything can happen.

Serf posted:by the power of nothing matters If there's no smoking gun on Trump himself, Trump could pardon manafort and get away with it. Like immediately after charges were announced. Hell Trump might be able to self pardon for collusion with the Russians if it's only proven that it was to help himself win the election as opposed to I will support a breakup of NATO. Impeachment takes 66 senators, no way that enough republicans will break ranks if FOX decides the narrative is "global elitists frame Trump".

There is no mechanism where we can stop or even delay/change the nominee for a supreme court justice unless we get another 5 senators. Don't care. Republicans voted a billion times to repeal the ACA despite it being pointless. The Dems need to fight and more importantly show they are willing to fight and if not than to be punished for rolling over.
