If we are playing with Mitch’s ball (Senate), then he is able to make us all play his rules. If we don’t like it, tough. Maybe next season Mitch will lose his balls and Chuck Schumer will be calling the shots.
Think about it, if the GQP Senate is pushing thru a vote BEFORE the election, it can only be because they fear what is coming ON Election Day, if they were certain of a win, what’s the rush?
Meanwhile Trump is saying that he’s expanding his ban on racial and sexual sensitivity training to include all government contractors. I guess government was too small for him. Now he will probably get some ex post facto laws written by his lackeys McConnell, Cruz et. al., to make it illegal to sue sexual predators if they’re republican.
Here is a straight forward un-hypocritical statement.
“No one should be surprised that a Republican Senate majority would vote on a Republican President’s Supreme Court nomination, even during a presidential election year. The Constitution gives senators the power to do it. The voters who elected them expect it. Going back to George Washington, the Senate has confirmed many nominees to the Supreme Court during a presidential election year. It has refused to confirm several when the President and Senate majority were of different parties. Senator [Mitch] McConnell is only doing what Democrat leaders have said they would do if the shoe were on the other foot.”

Consistency is also used to describe the flesh of fruit, and here it could be expressed as ‘rotten to the core!’

Better lower the goalpost, too. To grade level. Or a little lower.

Troll, troll, troll your boats gently down the stream. It’s past time time for a president that has America’s best interests at heart.
