Supreme Court Nomination Chaos - Bug or Feature??

  • Summary

  • In this round, Mike and Kurt compare two controversial Supreme Court nominations - the 2016 Obama nomination of Merrick Garland, and the 2020 Trump nomination of Amy Coney Barrett. When Justice Antonin Scalia died in an election year back in 2016, Senate Republicans argued that it was too close to the election to hold confirmation hearings for Barack Obama's nominee. Fast forward to 2020, an election year where many of the same Senate Republicans are rushing to confirm Donald Trump's nominee just weeks before the general election. Is this honest, or is it hypocrisy? Are the circumstances different enough to justify such a reversal? Is it time to change the rules? Join us as Kurt and Mike drink tequila and stout and debate these questions - and more - on this week's Right Brain Left Brain!
