I was screaming at both Bernie and Hillary supporters, NOT THE MAJORITY, but a small faction of both, that they needed to scrap their all or nothing bullshit to win, and I brought up SCOTUS back in 15/16 as being equally if not more important than if Bernie or Hillary won. But unfortunately liberals/progressives were too divided, and we lost as a result. And now, predictably SCOTUS is the most important issue especially now.
SCOTUS is important as it was back then. But if you don't win, you don't have the power to change the SCOTUS makeup.
To be fair, if we could do what Mitch did in denying Garland today, I am all for that, but the makeup of the Senate isn't there. They are not the GOP of Nixon's time and all they are concerned about is keeping power. Our only shot now is voting Trump out of office in November.
