If we had pulled the trigger back then, we'd have a clear field for getting a known conservative justice confirmed right now.

If there were enough votes to push the "Nuclear Option" then we would have done it. We threatened to do it because all we could do was threaten.

Seeing the "Nuclear Option" fail would have been disastrous. You should be thankful a face saving out was found by 7 RINOs.
