Other Republicans cited the tense battles over Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas. “In other words, the president gets to initiate, but we are full partners in the process.” Bork, Thomas and GOP trauma “No matter who is in the majority in the Senate, for the foreseeable future, the confirmation process is going to be viewed by senators as a co-responsibility,” he said Thursday at a Punchbowl News event. Today, he said, the Senate is in “full assertiveness mode” and unwilling to defer to the president on the high court. McConnell said it all began when Democrats “assassinated” Bork. They remain bitter about Robert Bork, the 1987 Ronald Reagan nominee who was excoriated as extreme and unfit before he was voted down 42 to 58 by a bipartisan majority. Republicans are carrying a different set of scars and trauma, which were on display during the Jackson hearings. McConnell hasn’t foreclosed on a further escalation, declining last year to say whether he’d allow Biden to fill a potential Supreme Court vacancy with a mainstream liberal in 2023. Then in 2020, he rushed through Justice Amy Coney Barrett the week before the election after the death of liberal icon Ruth Bader Ginsburg, pulling the court to the right. For 10 months he blocked President Barack Obama’s pick, Merrick Garland, saying the presidential election was too close. Garland and 'the point of no return'ĭemocrats say Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell broke the process in 2016 when he eliminated a longstanding presumption that a president’s nominee for a vacancy gets a vote. Many also insist that any nominee embrace “originalism,” a framework of narrow constitutional interpretation popular on the right. Senators justify it in part by citing Democrats' treatment of conservative judges dating back decades. Republicans remain hungry for confrontation despite five years of using unprecedented tactics to engineer the most conservative Supreme Court in a century - a 6-3 majority poised to reshape U.S. While blame games are abundant, consensus solutions to repair it are lacking. But the likelihood of narrow success for Jackson obscures the ongoing disintegration of the Supreme Court confirmation process, which some senators fear is irreparably broken.
