Schumer Claims He Is Doing His Best To Derail The Senate

The GOP is busy debating over Corona relief packages and meanwhile, the Dems are wasting time trying their best to stop the appointment of Amy Coney Barrett. Senator Chuck Schumer is refusing to accept any of the GOP’s Corona relief plans and wants to postpone Barrett’s appointment until mid-November, after the presidential election. He has been trying his best to sabotage the Senate and has called for it to be recessed until mid-November at least twice now. Schumer claims he is not going to stop and intends to do everything in his power to prevent Barrett’s appointment, if only he was this motivated when it comes to helping Americans…

“Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) returned to his efforts to roadblock Senate business Wednesday, derailing Republican efforts to vote on a scaled-back coronavirus relief bill and bring the agenda to a screeching halt ahead of the November presidential election.

Schumer is looking to use procedural tricks to delay a vote on judge Amy Coney Barrett’s appointment to the Supreme Court — a vote that looks all but certain to succeed and is now scheduled for Monday, despite Democrats’ complaints.”

“The Senate Judiciary Committee is expected to gavel back into session on Barrett’s nomination on Thursday, and the committee is expected to approve seating Barrett, moving the issue on to the full Senate. If McConnell is able to win cloture on Friday, there will be around 30 hours of debate on the subject before the Senate will take a final vote, expected, now, on Monday, according to the official Senate calendar, released Tuesday night.”

“Schumer says he will continue to derail “regular order” in the Senate until a vote on Barrett’s nomination is pushed off into November.”

Schumer is just wasting time at this point, he should accept that he lost this one and move on. There is no way that he can stop the Senate that has a Republican majority, these stall tactics are useless. Barrett is going to get appointed well before the presidential election. Schumer here is simply putting on a show for Liberals, making it look like he gave it his all when in reality he is just spinning his wheels.
