No, Schumer, he doesn't have to negotiate with you. All he has to do, under the Constitution, is send his judicial nominations to the Senate. If you choose to reject them, leaving all sorts of courts without judges, that's up to you. If I were Bush, that's exactly how I'd play it, and let the public know who's responsible for all those judicial vacancies. Including the SCOTUS, if it comes to that.
My first action as POTUS after these clowns are officially sworn in would be to turn off the heat in both the Senate and House Chambers until the end of June. Then turn it up to 96. Hope it's a cold winter.
