All the grandstanding this week is to set up the continued obstruction in Congress once Hillary is inaugurated. When they lose the Senate, they'll keep obstructing in the House.
They will introduce impeachment papers on Day One. They're headed for oblivion and it's going to get uglier and uglier.

(23,156 posts)If Dems do not have a clear majority, they could block every nominee. If the Repubs continue to be in the majority, they won't even bother to hold hearings.
We could wind up with a 6 person Supreme Court down the road.
I really wish Barack Obama would be out there every day pounding the Republicans for their failure to consider his nominee. He's just being a bit wishy-washy here.

(58,785 posts)right at the convention, as if this one's already lost and they're looking ahead. Lol. As for uglier and uglier, that has to be their problem as much as possible. It's hardly the way to start rebuilding.
