Like what Harry Reid did with the nuclear option?
I bet if you asked Harry Reid if he regrets anything it would be not ditching the filibuster entirely when the Democrats took power in 2008.

Which came about because republicans were breaking filibuster norms. Republicans were already using the filibuster at unprecedented rates when they stated their intention to filibuster every nominee Obama brought forward. How can a government function like that?Like what Harry Reid did with the nuclear option?

He did that option because of what Mitch was doing to stall court nominations. He did not do it for the Supreme Court, Republicons did. It is interesting that folks think this is okay given that one team tried to overcome the obstructionists behavior. Instead of seeing if Democrats would obstruct, they just did it.
It’s like in tennis. If one guy uses a racket that is slightly bigger than everyone, then the next guy uses one sooo big they have a major advantage. Instead of accepting responsibility, they say the famous childhood thing that never worked, “...but he did it first.”
Grow up.
I called this one:
Romney backs vote on Supreme Court nominee, clearing way for Trump
The announcement means Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has enough votes to move forward with Trump's pick.www.politico.com
I wonder what Trump offered him to change his mind...
He didn't have to offer anything.I called this one:

No shit. Did you really think that’s what he meant?
hyperbole
noun
hy-per-bo-le
Exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally.
I bet if you asked Harry Reid if he regrets anything it would be not ditching the filibuster entirely when the Democrats took power in 2008.
Well this is exactly what he said, allow me to quote. Please note the bolded and underlined part where he said "Every Trump Supporter". I have no reason to think that isn't what he meant.
" Found what every Trump supporter thinks today in the Home Depot parking lot:"

So you either don’t understand hyperbole, despite being given the definition, or you really believed he really thinks he knows what every trump supporter thinks.
Are you sure you want to die on this hill? That’s an expression btw, I don’t want you taking it literally. /eye roll

What happened was Romney realized that Trump's nominee list mirrored Romney's own nominee list. Remember who Mitt Romney is and how religion is everything to Mitt Romney. Mitt couldn't be happier with the possibility of Amy Coney Barrett on the high court. Just look into her eyes, the eyes of total religious insanity. Just imagine this flaming haired demon deciding laws that affect YOU.

Yes, The eyes of Satan himself... LOL
I do understand hyperbole...
Geek has shown quite a few times that languaging is hard for him, which causes him pain, so it's something he projects onto others.
I just don't believe in speaking in bull shit as you do.
Are you being literal, cuz that's not what he said. Are you using hyperbole? What a stupid comment.
And she is a religious nutter, no question about it. Look it up.
No, no you don’t. This sad little exchange is more evidence that you don’t understand much of anything.
Whatever you say. When all you have are insults...
It is called sarcasm. Your meter broken?
Sportage called her a demon. I made fun of him with sarcasm. Having issues with your languaging? LOL
She has the freedom of religion. She doesn't have to meet your standard.
It wasn’t an insult, just an observation. You are well within your rights to have limited capacity for understanding and reflection. This is America after all!
