Democrat Chris Murphy: ‘No Business Should Proceed’ in Senate After Trump Coronavirus Diagnosis
Breitbart ^ | October 02 2020 | SEAN MORAN

Posted on 10/02/2020 11:20:14 AM PDT by knighthawk

Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) wrote in a statement Friday that “no business should proceed” in the Senate, which would include the confirmation of Judge Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court, until the Senate understands the scope of the coronavirus spread in Washington, DC.

Murphy released a statement after President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump tested positive for the coronavirus, as Breitbart News reported.

He contended every person in Congress needs to get tested to find out the scope of the spread of the coronavirus in the Capitol and no business should continue until everyone gets tested. This would include the confirmation of Judge Barrett to the Supreme Court.

Why would Trump’s COVID test prevent the rest of the government from happening? If anything, they should make a point of proceeding as usual.

The President is not a member of the Senate - therefore, this makes no sense.

This has been their M/O since the middle of February: use the Chinese virus to shut down the entire United States and lock down its citizens as much as possible, while letting their minions and their agenda run wild.

Blame everything that results on President Trump.

It’s so obvious a blind man can see it.

That'd be a hell of a way to run a war. Fire his ass!

Why? We have three separate, co-equal branches of gov’t. Once the chief executive makes his nomination, the Senate doesn’t need him in order to take up the nominee’s confirmation.

If it was a RAT president with a RAT senate, they would have the SCOTUS nominee seated by this afternoon.

It shouldn’t. They look for any excuse to slow down ACB vote. Pathetic Senators from Conn.

Spend no time looking for logic in anything from these Democratic Politicos. They are appealing to their base for money and throwing scat against the walls, just like their forbearers!
