Or else what? Chuck Schumer’s leverage to obstruct the next nominee to the Supreme Court was almost as incoherent as his demand for a “mainstream” nominee. Appearing on MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Show last night, Schumer followed that demand up with an acknowledgment that Democrats wouldn’t consider any nominee mainstream if he or she had full Republican support.

If Robert Bork is still alive I would love to see them appoint him just so he could retire a month later.

He deserved it, would have been great, and provided much needed intelligence.

Sorry Chuckles, but extreme liberal left is not mainstream. These lefties keep getting closer to the edge of the cliff.

It seems the socialist party has decided to chose Schumer as their chronic crier/complainer/obstructionist. These morons don’t know there will be another election and this time they won’t be able to blame Russia or emails just their old, failed recipe for corrupt government.

IF the GOP were smart- it would be the perfect opportunity for the republicans to paint the left as the “True Do nothing Party”

Mainstream = pro-homosexual, pro-Muslim, pro-abortion, anti-Christian, etc. etc.

Wonder if the “Schumerites” cause two or three Republicans to say a Trump nominee is not “mainstream?” I can think of McCain and the Sodomite senator at a minimum.
