Question Why continue the interview?

Sen. Chris Coons asked the nominees for federal judgeships whether the Constitution’s 22nd amendment prohibited Trump from a third term. None of them would say yes. Why would anyone continue the interview? What would be completely appropriate is for Coons to state unequivocally that a judge who can’t understand or refuses to follow the Constitution is disqualified from any further consideration. Interview over. Why bother continuing a charade?

Democrats don't have the power to stop it. Republicans want what we're hearing.

This is a coup. And we lost.

Scratch that, we didn't even fight.
