‘Nice try’! Biden adviser Zeke Emanuel says ACB confirmation should be put on hold to protect Democr… er… all senators

Oh, really?

Stunning lack of imagination there Zeke. ? https://t.co/AB72TELKPI

For some reason the Democrats don’t seem open to creative solutions to the problem:

Or…instead of trying to come up with an obvious ploy to not vote on ACB, senators can attend the hearing remotely if they want to, as many have been doing already for months now https://t.co/qkfcLwzdXD

Just this week there was a remote hearing with Comey – why can't Senators do the same with ACB? The Tech CEOs did their hearing remote i. August. We now know that we have full remote capacity to continue to conduct business.

Or they just have zoom hearings like they have been doing since covid.

Or if Mitch McConnell saw fit, the Senate could even skip the hearing process:

Alternative take: McConnell can just bring her nomination to the floor for a vote. Every day of delay increases the odds a Senator could contract COVID!

There are other options, but the Dems will pretend they don’t exist. However, Mitch McConnell will likely remind them as the month goes on.

Nice try ?????

Very science-y advice, surely unaffected by his politics https://t.co/lrnVdFQMye
