That ripping sound you just heard was the fabric of reality being shredded as Republicans unleashed weapons-grade hypocrisy.
On Thursday, Mr. McConnell accused Democrats of engaging in “obstructionist tactics” to block a well-qualified nominee.
Even though McConnell’s assault was extreme, it’s possible that reality might have survived had not Chuck Grassley employed the Twitter function on his Jitterbug.
And with that, the whole universe rolled up into a ball and died whimpering.
“Despite the judge’s outstanding performance, his exceptional background, and the extensive support he’s received from people of all political leanings, we know that some Senate Democrats will continue trying to come up with any reason to delay the confirmation process,” Mr. McConnell said of Judge Gorsuch.
No. Stop. It’s over. Now you’re just kicking the ashes.
