Republicans fumed on Tuesday night after Democrats quickly lined up in opposition to Donald Trump’s Supreme Court pick, Neil Gorsuch – a shut down the government in 2013 in an effort to defund and derail the Affordable Care Act. Cruz spent 21 hours rambling on the Senate floor and treating us all to a creepy reading of “Green Eggs and Ham,” all so he could take health insurance away from millions of Americans.
Now, when Democrats decide to stand up to an incompetent president after he picked a right-wing ideologue to fill a vacant spot on the Supreme Court, the same man – Ted Cruz – is whining about obstruction.
But nobody is buying the phony outrage.
Republicans spent the last eight years writing the playbook on “unprecedented obstruction.” It was only a matter of time before Democrats picked it up and started reading from it.
