By the way, Obama failed to make over a hundred appointments...choosing to leave positions vacant. That was often touted on the Right as incompetency by Obama; interesting to see the Right being blamed for it now. But, let's assume you are right, and it is 100% the GOP's fault...how far down the rabbit hole will we go?...will cooler heads prevail? Or, will each side use whataboutism to justify their next escalation? No one has packed the Court...you know that means increased the size of the Court for political gain (although FDR threatened it). No one has packed the Senate by admitting States just to gain political advantage...in fact, back in the day, the admission of States was typically a negotiated thing to preserve balances of power for the Democrat slave owners.
