Reasons Why We Should Get Rid Of Supreme Court Confirmation Hearings.
The article gives three listed reasons. What me dino considers the most important reasons stated elsewhere in the article were left out of the numeration bit.
At the top of the article the writer states that "the Constitution doesn't require a hearing. All it says is that the Senate must give advise* and consent."
"Advise" is a typo. Me dino had to look up what I thought was the word was~ta da!~"advice."
The next most important reason is at the bottom of the article where it states that these hearings is a waste of the Senate's time and the taxpayer's money. Oora!h
The listed three reasons ran like so~
1. Senators are asking both unanswerable and, frankly, nongermane questions.
2. These hearings have become nothing but political grandstanding for political bases.
3. These hearings have become a circus, a theater, a fiasco, whatever you want to call it.

A Gulcher mentioned that book when we were discussing something on another post last night.
That goes for a socialist too with a photo of a giddy for happy Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez beside that new definition
We don't learn anything about the candidate. They simply don't answer questions about their standing on crucial issues, see Ginsburg hearings.
Add to this that some announced at the start they won't vote for the candidate (Schumer). So why are they there? We are not interested in their personal opinion.
The SCOTUS hearings like many other things are a phenomenon how destructive the left have become. They want anarchy and unrest (see Booker's "release" of Kavanaugh documents which were already approved for release) because they need chaos to operate. As long as this state prevails, things are going to be even worse.
