Should you be surprised?
Everything is partisan nowadays. Especially with Democrats.
They havent worked for the people for awhile. They work for the party, and for party empowerment.
Anytime a Democrat does anything or supports anyone outside of partisan lines, they are done. Gone.
See: Heidi Heitkamp.

An election year is not the time to appoint any federal judges. Let the people decide. It is what Moscow Mitch would want. Remember Merrick Garland?

Trump nominated Leonard BACK IN AUGUST you dolt. Obama didn't even mention Garland until the month of March of that election year.

Thanks for the info MW. You can count me also, as another that won't vote for Gary Peters this November because of this partisanship

Yeah, one month after Scalia's death. Obviously Antonin should have given Obama a heads-up he was about to croak in order to keep it on the up and up in your mind...

My only point is that this isn't remotely comparable to Garland. Leonard was nominated a full 15 months before this year's election (compared to 7.5 months for Garland). If 7 can be extended to 15, why not 22? Hell, let's just make it so you can nominate judges only the year immediately following an election. Other 3 years are off limits.

Hell, let's even make it better. If RGB doesn't pass away in the next six weeks Trump nominee gets no hearing until after the election. Deal? Fair is fair...

It’s knee slapping rich that YM Ionhere believes Democrats especially don’t work for the people and are only concerned with party. That’s the exact definition of of just about every republican politician and voter since The 1960’s. McCarthy black listing, Nixon’s Watergate break in and cover up, too many pedophiles like Hastert and Roy Moore to count, Iran/Contra, Trump-hatched Birther Hoax, Kent State, and far too many other republiCAN’T bad excuses for lawmakers and political leaders to count.

One thing Trump disciples do well is cry their eyes out over politics. Mitch the turd has been leading his pack of assholes in this game for 10 years and I don't recall any outrage. Karma's a bitch.
For Kristian Trumpers are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.

1. Trump is in his first term, so this doesn't apply.
2. Trump's party is in charge of the Senate.

Except the fact that US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the president and do not receive a lifetime appointment, your assessment is spot on! :roll:

So guess what, Gary? There is now ZERO chance of me voting for your reelection! Congrats.
Were you seriously considering this putz over John James?

"especially Democrats" doesnt mean "only Democrats, no one else" in the real world.
It means more so, but not exclusively.

Care to troll some more with blatant misquotes and misrepresantation?
