Collins is a POS like every Republican since the 1960s or 70s.
But what bothers me yet more than her argument for voting for unfit, unqualified Blackout Brett is that like practically everyone else, no consideration went to his woefully insufficient and extremist record as a, you know, judge.
Apparently for the a-holes who voted to confirm, being a party hitman is sufficient qualification.
Too, our f*** you POTUS is selecting f*** you nominees. And since he’s the most popular Republican out there, the Rs in Congress have no choice but to do his bidding. (And speaking of our infantile POTUS, even money that Kavanaugh’s appearance the other week was deliberate to impress Donald and excite the base for next month.)
Then again, it’s not like we were ever really much of a democracy for the most part since our founding. Were we a democracy in any true meaning of the word, Donald wouldn’t even be POTUS. So what you can call an undemocratic democracy may as well have its highest court made up of a party who doesn’t believe in a system of law but in merely using the law to serve their party’s special interests to the detriment of the nation.
