The CNN anchor said Democrats had been 'outmaneuvered' by the Senate minority leader, as he questioned the balance of the Supreme Court.

Acosta noted the filibuster is"preventing all kinds of legislation from passing in the Senate, from abortion rights to protecting America's elections to gun laws."

"Democrats could think about it this way. If Mitch McConnell were in their shoes, what would he do? Given what we know, would we see him letting the filibuster stand?" Acosta continued.

'Brett Kavanaugh, had described Roe as 'an important precedent' during his confirmation hearing,' Attention Jim Acosta, [scarcely, the smartest anchor, decency knows] There are other equally important SCOTUS precedents which are weighed against each

Jim is right they need to start thinking like Mitch.

I think so too. I've never understood how Mitch kept from Obama from appointing a justice when he still had 10 mos in office, but yet trump rams through one while only a couple mos. left in office?

the dems have been derailed by manchin and conservative oligarch billionaires..mcconnell is just along for the ride

That because republican house and senate leaders know that it's a full-time job being an asshole...Democrats haven't figured that out yet...and that is why we fail!

It is time for Biden to pack the Supreme Court.
