re: #84 Hecuba’s daughter

They can stop the Supreme Court nominee. I am hoping that there may be a couple Republicans who care about other issues (the environment, education, labor etc) who can be persuaded to do what is right.

Democrats can’t stop the supreme court nominee. What they can (and should) do is oblige McConnell to end the filibuster if he wants to get this nomination through.

No preemptive surrender.
