If the Democrats go through with their filibuster or Neil Gorsuch they will overplay their hands so badly that even MSNBC & CNN won’t be able to put them back together for 2018. Here’s how I see this totally unraveling on the Democrats.
(1) The Republican’s will move to have a Nuclear Option with all Supreme Court candidates making the Democrats voice become less visible and Gorsuch will be confirmed.
(2) President Trump will have a big win with a majority of American’s supporting his nominee.
(3) Within 2 years there is a good likelihood that another Supreme Court Justice will leave the bench and the Trump Administration can pick someone who is more to the right of Gorsuch without any fear of the Democrats.
(4) Serious matters will come up and the crying wolf voice of the Democrats won’t be heard because they’ve cried too much before.
(5) This vote will hurt even the moderate Democrats that support Gorsuch in the end because they will labeled with the “no party”.
(6) They will insure there is no room for compromise even when it comes to competence and will have a difficult time having any say in the halls of power for many years to come.
To conclude the Democrats should attempt a filibuster but make some deal at the last minute that has them save grace not only today but for the future of their power.
