Trump nominates, but McConnell approves. Trump couldn't nominate anybody McConnell didn't approve of, or the nomination would fail. Just enough Rs would defect to defeat the nomination. Just like now, when just enough Rs defect to pass whatever corruption Schumer & Pelosi come up with.
That is what "advice and consent of the Senate" means. McConnell's track record is one of rolling over for the left, sandbagging the right. No way he's letting Trump install real, uncontrolled conservatives.
Interesting problem, if Trump nominated some hard right judge, not on McConnell's list, what would McConnell do to counter-punch, as he surely would.
That's about it. It's disappointing. None of it works as we were told.
And the fix won't work that way either. We expect somebody to explain how the RNC is corrupt, most Republican politicians are corrupt. Fed Reserve, medical establishment, etc. etc. That doesn't work. Folks have to be shown. Maybe Trump was all a show to lay out how it is all corrupt. Maybe he was a show to rub it in our faces that it is all corrupt and there is nothing we can do about it.
Can't tell either way at the moment. You'd think the gibberish spewed by Pelosi and Biden would be enough to convince all of the corruption, but it doesn't seem to be.
