They already look bad; question is, "How can they look any worse?"  If they do not stand-up to Trump now, then he will continue to appoint right-wing judges.  I bet that they will filibuster and will succeed.  I remember Robert Bork in the late 80s and this guy is just as crazy, if not more so.

You know what's changed since then? The nuclear option to break filibusters, which has Ben used by the democrats, and I'm not a fan of hoping McConnell's love of congressional tradition to prevent it's use again.
