The Republican Party’s Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell and their judiciary committee members deliberately prevented the U.S. Senate from discussing and voting upon the Democratic president’s nominee for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court while a Democratic president was in office. If this was in the best interests of our nation, then surely Democratic Senators should behave no less patriotically. Until at least the year 2021, Democrats should filibuster any discussion or vote for a seat upon the U.S. Supreme Court.
If Republicans behaved contrary to our nation’s best interests, their behavior should not be rewarded to encourage similar or worse occurrences in future senate sessions.
At very least the Democrats should insist that Senator McConnell on behalf of the Republican Party lead the passage of a vote for his own censure and publicly apologize for their undermining the reputation of the U.S. Senate; I do not believe the Democrats should insist upon McConnell’s resignation (if he wishes to remain in the U.S. Senate).
Until such a public Republican apology, it’s Democrats patriotic duty to filibuster any discussion or vote for a seat upon the U.S. Supreme Court while a Republican President is in office.

I would hope the Democrats obstruct... we need to use the nuclear option... the democrats are idiots, every time they tried to break the rules, the blowback has been universally been bad for them... they don't realize the rules was actually to their benefit... forcing the rules to be broken, means, in the future it will be used against them time and time again... The smart person would of told them to trade the vote for the Supreme Court for approval of a policy that they wanted... now they are on the hook for losing every policy and the Supreme Court vote... its a lose-lose situation for the democrats... as I said, before they are going extinct... they are just making it easier for their party to die out...

Can't.
Rules are going to be changed -- majority vote this time around. No filibuster.
Fine, then we can use the nuclear option where we don't need the democrats.
What is that? That is unfair?
you can thank Reid For that, you people seemed to think it was fair when you implemented it.
