#1 These developments sound like a really big deal, but they were easily predictable given our toxic political climate

#7 Democrats know (1) Pubs probably won't use the power, or not often (2) The power will be theirs eventually and they will use it.

#8 You may be right, but I think they will rue the day. Trump is really likely to get two more appointments. And he could nominate anyone now. Like Glenn Reynolds, or Paul L. Caron, or Hillsdale College Associate Dean of Men, Jeffery “Chief” Rogers, or Ann Coulter. There is nothing they can do.
