. . Reid continued to try to work with him.
But, there is a limit to the amount of straw that a camel can carry, and when they blocked all 3 of the latest nominees that were appointed by the President of the United States to the DC Court, that was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Reid did all he could to keep from changing the rulez of the Senate.
He has been a Senator since 1987, for 26 years . . more than a quarter of a century.
But, enough is enough, indeed.
