Basically the R Senators are smarmy hypocritical dbags. I cannot in good faith put forward an acceptable rationale for that.
McConnell rationalized it with the fact that Trump and the Senate were both GOP, and that was a different fact pattern, but no one was putting on those restrictions 4 years ago.
And for even the most Trump skeptical, Barrett is a favorite. I like her far better than Kavanaugh, and plenty of people wanted revenge for how BK was treated in his confirmation process. I mean, for people who have been tolerating Trump for the exceedingly rare wins, this was a big one.
I love her, but don’t necessarily think it was worth it unless you’re an LOL nothing matters nihilist.
