The Republicans put their justice in. The Democrats win elections for the White House and Senate, and when the next vacancy comes up, they put their person in.

Did you give out similar advice when Garland's nomination wasn't even taken up?
If the Democrats had control of the Senate, it wouldn't have been an issue. They didn't have control of the Senate. Do I think that it was "wrong" to not even have a vote? Sure. But politics isn't about being right or wrong. It's politics. It can be as back-stabby and brutal as anything else. It's not like Garland was the only judge that didn't even get a chance. He was just another example when the confirmation doesn't roll through due to a party differential.
