Sen. Amy Klobuchar tells Amy Coney Barrett she thought someday she might be sitting in that chair

Well, this is telling. It sounds like Sen. Amy Klobuchar, whose presidential aspirations in 2020 flamed out, also pictured herself one day testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee as a Supreme Court nominee. Why does no one consider Klobuchar a “shameless careerist” like Barrett?

The best part is Klobuchar’s confession came in an exchange over Roe v. Wade and whether the ruling is a “super-precedent.” Nominee Brett Kavanaugh had considered it settled law, but the stakes are even higher now, so is the case a super-precedent?

Klobuchar doesn’t know what a super-precedent is, she just wanted to know if Roe is one.

For what it’s worth, Barrett says she doesn’t consider Roe v. Wade a “super-precedent.”
