It is somewhat hypocritical of Mitch, but much less of an affront to one’s senses than say, dragging a legitimate, respected nominee’s name and family through the mud with a story crafted specifically to not allow for scrutinization in a national spectacle in the name of “resisting”.  

The Dems have blown their load at every turn through Trump’s presidency.  They are the party of “by any means necessary” and “the ends justify the means”.  They’ve already talked about expanding the SCOTUS as a result of this appointment.  In political terms, they deserve what’s happening/about to happen.

Make no mistake, there would be no waiting until after the election if the situation were reversed.  SCOTUS is the holy grail for the left.  Lifetime appointments where activist judges with a majority can essentially legislate from the bench.  That fantasy needs to be pushed as far out of reach for them as possible.
