justice kennedy's successor this fall. >> our republican colleagues in the senate should follow the rule they set in 2016. not to consider a supreme court justice in a election year. >> they are already butting heads over replacing kennedy. and they need to confirm the last vote over justice neil gorsuch broke down along party lines. 54-45. now once upon a time, 60 votes were required to proceed to a final vote on the supreme court nominee but they changed that vote to invoke the nuclear option requiring 51 votes for cabinet officials and judges except for supreme court justices and he said you will regret it and maybe sooner than

to get a voice of reason now? probably not. so on that hand, yes, it applies a lot of pressure to senators murkowski and collins. i really think the pressure, laura, like you would probably agree is on the legal community. the organizations like the national bar association and the hispanic national bar association and they have been pretty quiet in the jushld nominations front for the last year. it is time for them to step up. some of us have to renew and pay our dues but that is an important role they have to play. >> big victory, though, for senator mitch mcconnell who has been a stalwart in trying to get as many conservatives on the bench. republicans are happy today. >> i think you can hear republicans singing oh, happy day from capitol hill. donald trump didn't have enough wins going into the midterm election but you're talking about two supreme court appointments within 18 months and the tax bill. that is enough to campaign on. and i took care to note that mitch mcconnell said this is confirmed in the fall. that gives a lot of republicans

understand -- >> and when you say raise hell. what do you mean? what do you want democrats to do. >> being firm, when there was a point in time recently where you did not want a justice appointed before an election. let the people speak loud and clearly, we're in the middle of primary, why can't you decide this on the other side of the election. you have other things that are empty, empty promises that you haven't fulfilled so this doesn't take priority over immigration right now. >> but you can't stop this. as long as republicans stick together, anything they do to push back will be a rhetorical exercise only. republicans have the votes and the question is timing. probably the only thing they can do is maint ma-- can do is make appointment during the hearing and try to knock the nominee off balance and other than that, there is nothing they can do. and they say mcconnell is being that way -- during a president trumpal election, donald trump will make this appointment in july, august, november,

you think and when republicans were back in the majority, they lowered the vote threshold to 51 votes for supreme court justices as well. let's bring in phil manningly. do you know if mcconnell is even considering listening to schumer to wait until after the election. >> i appreciate your chuckle. the short answer is no. he made that statement on the senate floor a short while ago saying there will be a vote in the fall and they expect to have hearings after a selection is made and it is worth noting, the senate majority leader is high on the 25 individuals that are on president trump's list that he said he would pick from. most interesting from the republican side of things in terms of what will happen next, i have one top republican official tell me the full machinery of the republican party is about to kick into high gear. this is obviously an issue of utmost importance for the majority leader and the parry. we're talking millions of dollars in outside money and major pushes on the p.r. side and on the lobbying side, on the grassroots side trying to get

december, and he will be president until 2020. and so this idea that republicans should hold off because we made obama hold off during a presidential election year, i don't think it is very persuasive. >> orrin hatch republican of utah made a point about that. let's roll that sound. >> look, this is not close to a presidential election. >> it is close to a midterm election where senate seats -- >> that is different. we'll still have the same people that will hear this any way. and frankly -- >> a third of the senate is up -- >> well, so. that doesn't mean the senate doesn't function. >> the truth of the matter is the merit garland rule that mitch mcconnell created, saying it is a presidential year and we'll hold off until the voters decided, that was invented. that never happened before. >> it had never happened before. and one of the -- >> and the idea that they are deviating from it now doesn't -- it is all made up. >> and the whole argument about hypocrisy, the idea that mitch

lurching left ward. are democrats bracing for a coup from the progressive left? depends on who you ask. >> i think the democrats are going hard left. if you look at presidential primary, voters in 2020 seems to me that 35% or 40% were self identified socialists so it is a general election problems. >> don't get carried away as an expert on demographics. >> reporter: the dynamics of the race are reminiscent of the 2016 presidential race where a certain other establishment democrat faced a more extreme democratic socialist competitor who also drew say passionate and populous following.

not saying that joe crowelly was, but he had to compromise to become nancy pelosi heir apparent. >> and let's talk about the ads in this race and others in texas. she had wonderful ads. the ad sticks with me. i think that transcends party. and she's a democratic socialist and a lot she has to say but when she talked about needing a representative that drinks the water we drink and the air we breathe. could you run that anywhere. >> it was a imagine kat cal ad. stick around. nancy pelosi also dismissed the election last night as voters making a choice in one district and it is not something bigger. we'll talk about that coming up. stay with us. the digital divide is splitting this country. we have parents who are trying to get their kids off of too much social media and computers, and then we have parents who would only hope their children have access. middle school is a really key transition point, right.
