>>confirmed in a Senate with a GOP majority

With John McCain, and Jeff Flake, and Corker as part of that “GOP majority”? Get real. They’re democrat never-trumpers pretending to be Republicans. We all know this.
Also, 60 votes is what it takes, not 51 minus 5 RINO’s.

That's why all those jerks voted against confirming Gorsuch, right?

Oh, wait a minute ... THEY DIDN'T.

Gawd, you're not just an a-hole, you're ignorant as well. McConnell, in a rare moment of finding his spine, lowered the confirmation threshhold to 51 for Gorsuch.

No, it doesn’t take 60 votes in the Senate. Where were you when McConnell got rid of the filibuster for Supreme Court justices in order to get Gorsuch confirmed? With Pence to break ties, only 50 votes are needed.
