Hatch claims Republicans didn't block Democratic Supreme Court nominees

Merrick Garland.

ADDY BAIRD AUG 2, 2018, 3:07 PM

Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) said Thursday he was tired of “dumbass” partisanship obstructing Trump nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation to the Supreme Court.

He appeared to ignore the fact that Republicans had two years earlier blocked President Obama’s nominee, Judge Merrick Garland, in order to assure the next justice was conservative.

“I really want to compliment the Democrats who have stood up and are willing to stand up for Judge Kavanaugh because they realize we can’t keep going down this partisan, picky, stupid, dumbass road that has happened around here for so long,” Hatch said during a press conference Thursday.

Then joined in on the partisanship to deny him an up or down vote.

No planet for you, Orrin.

I hate these fuckers perpetuating the bullshit narrative that Rs are defending the Constitution. They need to go away. Man, if Russia messes up this year's election and we don't see the blue wave, all bets are off.
