Brute force required to vote Chief Justice

washington - Republicans can only Thursday with brute force to ensure that their candidate for the Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch, get a majority in the Senate. Gorsuch In the Senate the support of at least sixty delegates needed to get the job for life in the US Supreme Court. That majority he does not get revealed Thursday during the lengthy debates on the appointment.

Therefore, probably the Republicans seize this Friday to the so-called 'nuclear option.' That means that they will facilitate the voting process. After that change, where a simple majority in the Senate is sufficient, the Republicans have enough on their own 52 of the 100 seats to ratify the appointment.

Many Republicans are reluctant to explain this 'nuclear option.' In case there is again a Democratic majority is in the Senate, who have plenty of half plus one to effect such appointment.
