Democrats sought to delay nominations by boycotting nomination hearings. They lost. Rules were changed not to require them for the vote.

Democrats are not worth less than relevant.

Shrug. People here who are all happy about this should remember. Eventually it will be the Democrats turn in the seat. Might be 4 years,might be 40. But it will come back around.

Yup... when Democrats changed the rules... the media didn't care, we waited... Now, Republicans change the rules... you are toast... If you don't like the rules being changed, I suggest the democratic party grow up... I am pretty sure that's not what the democrats wanted... its what they deserved...

Democrats have had the spine to use such tactics for years. I'm glad to see the RNC finally grew a pair.

In the words of Obama, "Elections have consequences."

The good thing about this is the public is going to hate the liberals... the constant "hate news" about Trump and the general public is going to be desensitized to any negative news... this is going to reflect poorly for the democrats in the future... they were never bright but they are doing exactly like what I hoped for... I love fools...

It's quite a slap in the face to Chuck Schumer who no doubt had to give the boycott his blessing.

He has absolutely no power to accomplish anything.

I know a lot on the right are all giddy about this, but truly....this is not going to end as well as you folks hope long term. Politics swings back and forth between the two parties.
