Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and other Democratic Senate leaders refused to meet with Judge Neil Gorsuch Thursday.
The act appears to be an act of revenge against Republicans for holding the seat of the late Justice Antonin Scalia open and not holding a hearing for Obama Supreme Court appointee Merrick Garland.
The White House requested that Gorsuch meet with Schumer, but aides said he declined in order to learn more about the nominee’s record, The Washington Post reported.
“By refusing to meet with Judge Gorsuch, Senate Democratic leadership is taking Washington gridlock and obstruction to a new low and placing Senators McCaskill, Donnelly, Heitkamp, Tester, and other Democrats up for reelection in 2018 on the endangered politicians list,” Carrie Severino, chief counsel of the Judicial Crisis Network, said in a statement.

I just hope that the weak kneed, cowardly Republicans in the Senate don't back down.
Maybe Gorsuch should be the one checking Schmucker’s background before meeting him lest he got
tainted
Frankly we need to keep blitzkrieging liberals with things to be upset about so they have to move from one to the other without dwelling
Send more Kleenex !!!!!!!!!!
F’em!
Chucky and his “leadership” team were busy participating in a “group hug and cry” session. LOL. Losers!!!
Yawn.
I guess the establishment has not yet learned that the new administration does not play their little games or feel their tiny slights.
How adult of them.
Isn’t BiBi coming later this month? Maybe Shumers invitation should get lost in the mail
“Frankly we need to keep blitzkrieging liberals with things to be upset about so they have to move from one to the other without dwelling”
Exactly! Make them fight many battles at once never being able to settle on one theme of mode of attack.
Trump has no say now that he has made the nomination. The Rats can try the same crap of boycotting committee hearings but Hatch will give them the same slap in the face he has given the other ones who have tried that stunt.
He will confirmed within a month.
Apparently some people are unaware that progress is being made everyday and Trump’s people are being confirmed even in the face of Democrat opposition.
Stop playing games-nuke them.
*Trump will stand strong against this obstruction.
I just hope that the weak kneed, cowardly Republicans in the Senate don’t back down.*
I understand what you are saying, but I dare to hope that they will come to their squishy senses and jump onboard the Trump Train; then they will see/enjoy what winning feels like!
Good. Who needs em?
When President Trump gets his Administration set up and running at full speed, people like Cry Baby Schumer and the gang will be hiding in their closets because they won't be able to show their faces...
We, as Trump Supporters, need to bring out EVERYTHING these libs are doing to undermine the building of our Country...
Schmucky better watch out. I heard Sessions has a lot of dirt on him.
Then have the committee vote and the Senate vote next week.
Damn the Democrats! Full speed ahead!
The Democrat weasels and their Republicrat bootlicking allies are on the path to an eternity in hell.
Democrats will destroy the nation if they can’t be in power and run things the way they want.
The filthy ba****ds!
Terrible shame that a smart and classy fellow like Gorsuch has to meet with low life vermin like Schumer and his cabal of verminettes.
