When was the last time you saw the right rioting? burning shit down? For goodness sakes the radical left started on inauguration day and they are openly calling for it to continue.
If the left were to control the senate and the white house, do you really think that they would look back and say, you know what, the right was civilized and gentlemanly and held off on the supreme court pick so lets see if we can work across the aisle and come up with solutions that are good for the whole country. Wrong, they would try to do what they will try to do and at least some protection we can establish now is following the rules as set forth in the constitution. There is actually nothing partisan about that.
The dems already think they can do what they want:
1. Russia investigation
2. Impeachment
3. Spying on a presidential campaign
The left has already set the standard.
