6:53Now PlayingJust when you thought Republicans couldn’t get any crazier, they’re planning to block new appointments to the Supreme Court indefinitely. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Sen. John McCain is sure that if Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton wins, the Senate will continue to be an obstructionist mess.
In a Monday interview, the senator from Arizona said that Republican nominee Donald Trump is not necessarily a better candidate than Hillary Clinton when it comes to appointing Supreme Court justices, promising that Republicans wouldn’t approve any Clinton nominee to the Supreme Court.
“I promise you that we will be united against any Supreme Court nominee that Hillary Clinton, if she were president, would put up,” McCain told WPHT in Philadelphia. “I promise you. This is where we need the majority.”
McCain said he didn’t know if Trump would be the advocate conservative voters need to fill the late Justice Antonin Scalia’s empty seat on the court. “I don’t know because I hear [Trump] saying a lot of different things,” McCain said.
For many conservatives, Trump’s only saving grace this election is the prospect that as president he would replace Scalia with an equally conservative justice in order to bring balance to the court.”*
