      Yeah, as if the GOP is going to let a state Supreme Court dictate who they can and can’t nominate. That’s a precedent they can’t afford to accept. If they let the system hold them accountable in any way, where does it end?

        Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect

        So yeah fuck state courts that aren't dominated by Republicans

        Just wait for the state court to say “just because you nominated someone ineligible doesn’t make them eligible”
