I'd never make it through a Senate confirmation, that's for sure

[Silent3]

I wouldn't be able to resist calling out and sneering at the grandstanding and the hypocrisy and the fake issues, and basically telling those Republican Senators to fuck off.

For some reason having the temperament to politely endure that shit is necessary. At least if you're the nominee of a Democratic President, doubly so if you're non-white, doubly so if you're non-male, and quadruply so if both apply.

1. Me neither

And she hasn't cried yet.

2. Me too. She's great. Honestly, this junk has been going on for decades.

3. I dunno

If you're the right kind of privileged jerk, you can whine, pule and say you like beer, and you'll still sail through to confirmation. Of course, you have to finesse that FBI background check to avoid answering any inconvenient questions about how you were able to afford your house and how your mountain of personal debt just disappeared.

4. Every time I hear the GQP senators I end up

"calling out and sneering at the grandstanding and the hypocrisy and the fake issues, and basically telling those Republican Senators to fuck off" at my TV before I change channels so that I don't suffer a stroke.

5. Listening to Tom Cotton made me tense and want to hurl. NO ONE should be allowed

to holler in that tone to a nominee. Disgusting.

6. I'd go apeshit on Cruz's ass

I’d yell something like “Hey Ted, we’re you born a douche or did you have work at it?” I can see the horrified, shocked look on the faces of the entire Senate.

They’d march me right out of there and throw my purse after me. Such are my fantasies.
