          No, sorry, I can’t admit that Hillary Clinton would have picked the same sort of SCOTUS justices that Trump picked, the ones that did things like end legal abortion nationwide.

          I also can’t admit that Trump would have appointed Lena Khan to any sort of powerful economic position.

          And I certainly can’t admit that Republicans had an infrastructure program considering they had four years to come up with one and never did.
