to pull her nomination?

Obama made appointments that were unpalatable to the GOP so they voted against them. They did not try to stop the nominations. They did not even delay them. The simply voted their consciences and allowed the chips to fall where they may.

You equate that to the dems refusing to allow a vote on Gorsuch. Really?
