Dianne Feinstein, California’s most accomplished senator, became an anachronism. She practiced civility and compromised with Republicans across the aisle.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, California’s most accomplished senator, became an anachronism. She practiced civility and compromised with the other side.in an increasingly antagonistic political world.
She was the top Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee in 2020 when President Trump’s third Supreme Court nominee, conservative Amy Coney Barrett, was up for confirmation. Feinstein was criticized by liberals for an alleged weak performance. But there was nothing any Democrat could have done to block Barrett from the court. Republicans controlled the Senate.
“Look, this man is going to be president, most likely, for the rest of this term,” she told San Francisco’s Commonwealth Club in 2017, eight months into Trump’s presidency. She was in Chico. A man in jeans and a girl of around 8 were on a sidewalk. As Feinstein stepped from her car a few feet away, the man took the child by her hand, knelt and pointed his finger.A U.S. senator — an object of hate in this father’s eyes — was no role model for his young daughter. How warped was that?Feinstein’s greatest sin, of course, was growing old. She’s 89 and suffers memory lapses, it has been widely reported.
