(1/6) Democrats fell into their own trap by becoming the belligerents in this war over judicial supremacy. They won't admit it, apparently, they suffer from the same type of amnesia that they claim Trump is faking.

Let's take a walk.

(2/6) Exhibit 1: Robert Bork - Senator Joe Biden, sent Bork’s nomination to the floor with a rejection recommendation if brought to a full vote in the Senate. Bork, then a judge on the federal appeals court in the District of Columbia, demanded a full vote on the Senate floor.

(3/6) Exhibit 2: Miguel Estrada - In 2001, Senate Democrats’ decided to totally block his vote, this set the precedent. Estrada’s nomination was in limbo when they held the majority, then when they lost the majority in 2002, Democrats resorted to a partisan filibuster against him

(4/6) In an email to Dick Durbin, it was said that liberal activists “identified Miguel Estrada as especially dangerous, because he has a minimal paper trail, he is Latino, and the White House seems to be grooming him for a Supreme Court appointment.

(5/6) The Democrats will now tell you that the GOP started this with Merrick Garland calling it a political offensive advance but this is far from true as you see previously.

A lot fo the GOP like Merrick Garland, they did not try to destroy him or his family, but the GOP

(6/6) made it clear that the block was merely flipping the script on them as they set that precedent with Bork and Estrada.

Democrats have no leg to stand on here by set the precedent in this war over judicial supremacy.
