No, they haven't. What they are doing is holding McConnell to the new rules he established. He clearly established new rules that were counter to the constitution to deny the Democrats a seat on the court. What the Democrats are doing is forcing McConnell to live by the rules he established.

Who you think is right in their flip-flip depends on your partisan position, I suppose.

This is pretty consistent with a number of other areas. Democrats hate the expansion of executive power when its a Republican president, but love it when it's a Democratic president. And vice versa.
Except this is not the same. You know this but are intentionally playing dumb. Another behavior of trolling.
