both sides have tried to put their thumbs on the scale

Let's see, when discussing who put whose thumb on the scale, let's consider on the one hand:

Dred Scott

Plessy vs. Ferguson

Court packing scheme

Japanese internment

The Borking of Bork

The Borking of Thomas

The borking of Cavanaugh

Against which we have:

Mitch McConnell refusing to take up a lame-duck confirmation.

Mitch McConnell abolishing the filibuster of Supreme Court nominees.

Well, it's a difficult weighing process but, I guess I'll go with Mitch on this one.
