Yet somehow we also managed to appoint SC judges without the senate stalling nominations to prevent the president from being able to appoint them.

Let's not pretend that the current situation represents anything like "normal", and further, that we don't all recognize that bad-faith actions by the Republican party are responsible.

Yeah, that's because change happened.

Pretending that something can't be done because it worked for hundreds of years and then something bad happened isn't actually very correct.
