Don't forget to also give credit to the Senator that everybody loves to hate (which I completely understand), Mitch McConnell. If he hadn't prevented Merrick from being appointed by Obama, who knows if this would have come to pass. With Merrick on the court, Roberts might've sided with the liberal contingent.
The driving force behind that was Charles Grassley. He was the chair of the Judicial committee and Mitch the bitch kept Garland's name off the floor at Charles' request as I understand it.

I don't doubt it. But still, gotta give the Old Crow a bit of credit for taking the heat and not allowing the vote to take place. No telling what might've happened if Garland's nomination had made it to a vote.

The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.
