Genius, just genius!

Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh called on Republicans to skip a confirmation hearing for whoever Donald Trump nominates to fill the Supreme Court Justice seat left open following the death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
The long-time radio host called for the move during his show on Monday.
"I want the Judiciary Committee - that could be great if [the confirmation hearing] was skipped," he said. "We don't need to open that up for whatever length of time, so that whoever this nominee is can be Kavanaugh'd or Borked or Thomas'd. Because that's what it's going to be, especially when it's not even required."
Mr Limbaugh's arguments are rooted in fear that the Democrats will do everything in their power to undermine the character and qualifications of a Supreme Court Justice nominee picked by a Republican president.
He referenced the controversial confirmations of Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas, both conservative in ideology, and both who fought accusations of sexual misconduct during their hearings. Robert Bork was another conservative pick for the court, but was ultimately not confirmed.
