Chuck Schumer
@SenSchumer
The presiding officer confirmed the Senate has never—NEVER—confirmed a Supreme Court nominee this close to the election.

This is nothing more than a power grab—and we are fighting it.

1. I'm sure Moscow Mitch is crapping his pants Chuck

Hate to be negative but Schumer just doesn't cut it as an effective opposition leader in these times. I feel like if McConnell were in Schumer's position he'd be able to gum up the works. Does anyone ever remember anything Chuck Schumer ever says?

2. Ya know who *I* wish was Minority Leader right now? AL FRANKEN (nt)

3. We need a partisan rattfu**er right now not a technocrat

particularly if the Senate flips. I can't see Schumer playing the kind of hardball that will be necessary for some semblance of balance to be restored.
