Oh, bullshit.  You need to grow up.  Trump and the GOP are the ones that created the problem; they are the ones that need to fix it. Enabling their behavior as you do does nothing constructive to resolve the problem: It just makes it worse. This isn't high school; in real life the bully who ignores the rules and assaults someone is the one deemed responsible.  You don't say "good job"; you make them go back and start over or face the consequences.  In this case starting over means honoring the nomination and confirmation process by doing things right and following the rules, starting with nominating Merrick Garland.
