As I understand it, the nuclear option invoked by Harry Reid applies to all pres nominees except Supreme Court.

So all of these lower court nominees should be easily approved since the filibuster is gone for them.

Expect a huge battle led by Chuck Schumer over the nominee for Scalia’s Supreme Court seat. This could be where the Democrats filibuster.

Leaving the court at 8 is leaving it in a precarious position. Schumer will just initiate blowhard tactics and his picks will be approved.....due to the very simple fact that few nominees are NOT approved. The Dems playing games will be frowned on just like all this cr** the Dems are pulling now.

Filibusters is with the consent of the Republicans. If they don’t want it, do a Harry Reid

I believe McConnell will use the simple majority rule for Supreme Court justices. Harry Reid would, if he he had 50 votes plus Biden.
