I suspect there won’t be many comments on this thread. A whole bunch of Freepers who were venting about a betrayal by the GOP on this are probably getting medical attention for their anxiety and angst over the last few days. /sarcasm off/
I think it’s what is called Battered Wife Syndrome. No matter what happens...brace for impact. Surprisingly enough the impact was the shock wave of the nucular option! LoL!
While I believe this will come off as it should. History shows it is unwise to consider anything a done deal until after it happens when Republicans are involved - especially in the Senate.

If he were a hardcore idealogue who was certain to be a solid conservative vote on social issues he wouldn’t have gotten this treatment by the Repukes. It’s theater so they can pretend they are with us
Given the past, oh, 40+ years of spineless GOP groveling to the MSM and Democraps, it is never reasonable to trust the GOP to do the right thing. When it happens, great and wonderful. But it is ridiculous for you to attack fellow FReepers for not trusting GOP leadership, given the track record.
They still need to be followed and watched on every single issue. Liberals are evil, and so are Rinos, but liberals ALWAYS take EVERY advantage, while Rinos usually give in to democrats, on everything they possibly can. The little dance they play when they’re in power, has gone out of style, and they better keep their eyes on the ball, because we’re watching them, and I think, AT LAST, they’re starting to sweat, because conservatives are fed up with business as usual from them.
The “Principled Conservatives” are probably feeling betrayed by the GOP for not caving.

you got that right. I for one never doubted McConnell when he repeatedly stated multiple times a couple of weeks ago that Gorsuch WOULD be confirmed on 4/7/2017.
but you’re right about the nattering nabobs of negativism coming from all the nevertrumper trolls now masquerading as concern trolls.
