Throughout her eponymous MSNBC show on Tuesday night, Rachel Maddow bitterly aired her frustrations that “non-controversial” and “moderate” Judge Merrick Garland wasn’t not elevated to the Supreme Court thanks to a “radical” decision by Republicans to hold out for a conservative like newly-appointed nominee Neil Gorsuch.

The meltdown was evident from the first minute as Maddow complained that Republicans decided to “hold open” the late Antonin Scalia’s seat because Obama was “a Democrat and they didn't believe they had to and so they believed they would not, thank you very much, and that has never been happened in our country.”
