"Liberals are decrying a major legislative change they championed in 2013 because it’s setting President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet choices up for easy confirmation hearings.
The then-Democratic Senate, led by former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, passed a historic rule in 2013 called, “the nuclear option,” which eliminated the use of the filibuster on all presidential nominees except those to the U.S. Supreme Court. While at the time liberals loved the rule for allowing President Barack Obama to push through key nominations, they are now livid. The nuclear option allows Trump, with a Republican Senate, to have his appointments confirmed with a simple majority vote."
Now liberals are crying because the GOP is in position to take advantage of the 'tool' / 'rule' they created. Poor snowflakes should have listened to DNC Strategist in 2013:
FLASHBACK:
"Democratic strategist Maria Cardona’s words in 2013 were arguably the most foreboding: “There’s no question that we will one day come to regret this.”
Short-sighted, arrogant Democrats though there was no way they could lose...
OOPS! Ain't life / Karma a BIT@H!
