They made our country and fellow citizens suffer.
Victory for us is now a united "No" and in most cases it will stop the Republican agenda in its tracks.
Remember Merrick Garland!

Personally, I doubt they will support Gorsucc but they are waiting to declare. Why be on record before you have to? Trump Russia thing blows up tomorrow, there might not even BE a vote.

It's disgusting, an enormous breach of ethics and integrity by Republicans, and a detriment to this country for the next 30-40 years. But Dems can't stop it.
