If the GOP pushes through a SCOTUS nominee and approval before the inauguration, they will need to be hit with a retaliatory force that they never could have imagined on Election Day.
@hawaiiboy And then we will all need to push our Dem. Senators to pack the Court in response. ”Tit for tat” is a very effective method for ensuring fairness in game theory. If one side is certain that an escalation will be met by an equal response, there’s a strong incentive not to escalate. The GOP (for a host of reasons) hasn’t had to face that yet and has rationally continued to escalate.
