Another day, another redefinition. Fortunately, you don't get to decide.

As for holding up some nominees, and fast tracking others, didn't Harry Reid change the rules of the game on that with the Nuclear Option in 2013? Apparently he thought Dems would be in charge forever.

When you hold up Obama nominees, and fast-track Trump nominees, you are packing the court.


The majority, elected by the people were exercising their constitutional "Advise and Consent" power. If your team were in power, they would do the same.
