But even in the worst case they still have 3 months. It would take a series of monumental fuckups for Republicans to lose that SCOTUS seat.

Well if Trump nominates another serial rapist and liar then its not hard to imagine them not getting a (if they lose the senate) lame duck nom through lol!

I think McConnell/Trump do have a really tight grip on those 51 senators (including Flake).  I think Kavanaugh was a cunt hair away from getting rammed through.

The Republicans are wasting their own fucking time, their own Senators forced them to have the investigation not the dems LOLOL.  If they would have just had the investigation a week ago they would have already proven that Dr. Ford was a lying dem operative then Kavanaugh would be sitting on the bench for tomorrows session!

IF the dems win the senate AND Trump some how fucks up a lame duck nom the evangelicals will lose their fucking minds at not getting that seat!

The republicans opened pandoras box when they fucked Garland under the old rules and then changed the rules right away to benefit themselves.  If you think the dems are delaying now, just wait, IF the dems take the senate and Trump appoints another nom that his own party wont lame duck ram through, they will hold that seat open till 2020 or till they lose the senate again...

The irony of delaying Kavanaugh's nom for a week for an FBI investigations while the republicans held Garland open for 11 months is ignorant.  Right wing hypocrites, no wonder the right is full of evangelicals.

Edit: To be fair I am not actually convinced the dems are going to win the senate.  While the dems are polling strong early Trumps base has proven the polls are even less effective than normal.

At this point I still think the republicans will get their generation of conservative jurisprudence but I highly doubt it will be Kavanaugh as the Justice that makes that happen.

Y'all are screaming over losing the battle but yet still won the war.  The only thing stopping the republicans is the republicans haha.
