‘Their First Value Is Power’: Bill Clinton Calls GOP Push To Fill SCOTUS Seat ‘Superficially Hypocritical’

Regarding his thoughts about the expressed intention of President Donald Trump and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) to move forward with a female nominee this week, Clinton said, “Well, of course it’s superficially hypocritical, isn’t it?”
