Dem Sen. Markey claims Trump, McConnell 'stole two Supreme Court seats'
Fox News
In an address from the Capitol on Wednesday, Massachusetts Democrat Sen. Ed Markey told onlookers that Donald Trump and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., "stole two Supreme Court seats."
Markey's comments referred to the GOP blockade against the nomination of Merrick Garland in 2016 after then-Majority Leader McConnell refused to allow for a hearing on the nominee.
McConnell said in a February 2016 statement, "The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court justice."
