1. Really!

2. this should be the conclusion of Democrats in Congress and the Senate.

...and I think it's a growing consensus that Trump has so de-legitimatized his presidency through his behavior and actions that approving any of his agenda is complicity. I want that to be our Democratic legislators' consensus, as well.

...the Senate shouldn't vote on his Supreme Court nominee." -- FB/Twitter comment

4. Trump DOES NOT realize that the history-books have already been written.

His dubious election. That's history.

I only trust Jews with my money, a big beautiful wall, the Mexicans will pay for it, we're gonna win New York, there will be so much winning, grab em by the pussy, lock her up... All those are presidential quotes that will forever be associated with him. That's history.

The chaos and dysfunction of the early days of his administration, the clashes, the constitutional crisis his Muslim-ban caused, the shameless and ridiculous lies, the fight against an independent press... That's history.

The stolen Supreme Court seat. That's history.



The stolen Supreme Court seat has now become inseparable from the history of the Supreme Court. It is de facto an historical event. From now on, whenever there's some controversy over a Supreme Court nomination, the stolen seat will be brought up as a historical comparison.
