Chris Coons: Every Democrat Views the Open SCOTUS Seat as a Stolen Seat

‘There are more confirmable, more centrist Republican judges out there’

EXCERPT:

COONS: "I'll remind you that President Trump relied upon the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation to pick his nominee for this vacancy. There are more confirmable, more centrist Republican judges out there. And if there had been some consultation between the Trump Administration and Democratic leaders in the Senate, I think Judge Gorsuch would have gotten more Democratic support. This is a a very close call, Wolf, and it’s important to not miss that virtually every member of my caucus views this as a stolen seat and thinks there has to be some action take on to recognize that we should be actually celebrating the anniversary of Justice Garland rather than voting on Judge Gorsuch today."
