I think that ignores the revolutionary nature of 1980, 1994, 2010, 2014, 2016. It’s not that liberals aren’t “patient.” They usually govern too cautiously. Would Schumer have blocked a SCOTUS justice nominee if it had been within his power as McConnell did?.
I believe it’s in the very nature of conservatism to exercise patience, to stay committed to long term goals, even if it takes decades for those plans to bear fruit. That type of enduring vision is what makes conservative movements so persistent and effective over time.

This was a political assassination — not death from natural causes. Obama gave a eulogy for the Reverend Clementa Pinckney, who was murdered in act of racial terrorism in Charleston a decade ago.
@SER1897 It's rare for sitting presidents to attend even congressional funerals (done less than 10% of the time) and even more rare for them to attend the funerals of state legislators.

I think we can’t just shrug off the fact that the sitting president didn’t attend this funeral.
