Wasting zero time on taking the Paul Manafort guilty verdict and Michael Cohen plea deal to another level, MSNBC host Chris Hayes wonders how the Senate could possibly confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court “amidst all this.”
So the Senate is just gonna rush ahead to confirm the president's nominee to the Supreme Court amidst all this? Really?

What exactly does Paul Manafort’s fraud convictions or Cohen’s deal about campaign law have to do with Kavanaugh being confirmed?
Sure is! https://t.co/HteiKVjw3l

This reaction right here is a huge part of why Trump supporters refuse to be bothered by the craziness of this administration. https://t.co/NuF0CVNnnS

Only in MSNBC world would this kind of a connection be made.
Yup! And another few judges for the lower courts too.
The price of nominating the weakest candidate America has ever seen. https://t.co/SZS7RHgglA

If the Senate does not confirm him, he will not be seated. But it should be about Brett Kavanaugh and his qualifications to be on the Supreme Court, not legal proceedings that are tangential to the president.
While the Left doesn’t like to be reminded, Trump was elected president by the American people, who placed him in a position to nominate the successor to Justice Anthony Kennedy.
