Schumer: How about instead of nuking the filibuster, you let Democrats help choose Trump’s SCOTUS nominee?
Yeah, the Republicans won the election to do THAT? If that happened, Senate Minority Leader Chuckie Schumer would be the Senate Majority Leader in slightly less than two years. And neither Trump or Pence would be in the Oval Office. Oh Wait!
The GOP is not called The Stupid Party for nothing! When I first bookmarked this, it was not clear that McConnell would pull the trigger on the Reid Rule (formerly known as the Nuclear Option), so I WAS thinking that perhaps, they would take up the option so as not to be seen as being “divisive”. No, your base would not see you as divisive but WEAK and SPINELESS. You were sent there for a purpose – this would be a complete repudiation of that purpose. Also, how would you survive throwing your base under Schumer’s bus?
Stop fearing the wrong people.
