Schumer: Trump nominee must give personal views on abortion, hot-button issues
By Jordain Carney - 07/09/18 04:14 PM EDT

Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) called on President Trump's forthcoming nominee to the Supreme Court to their personal views on abortion and hot-button legal issues, calling a pledge to respect precedent "almost meaningless."
 
Schumer, speaking from the Senate floor, said there is "ample evidence" that whoever Trump picks would rule to undercut pre-existing conditions, bolster "corporate interest" and overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision that legalized the right to an abortion.
 
"The next nominee has a serious and solemn obligation to share their personal views on these legal issues no matter who President Trump selects tonight," Schumer said.
 
Schumer added that the nominee should give an "affirmative statement of support for the personal liberties of all Americans."

My thoughts exactly.  That game can be played both ways.  The Dems seem to forget that.

My personal opinion is..... you look really stupid with those glasses perched on the tip of your nose, Chuck.  We realize that you apparently "think" it makes you look intelligent, studious and perhaps even scholarly.... but guess what, Chuck.   You're wrong about that too!

Between the specs and his nasal, condescending way of speaking, he regained the King of Smarm crown, when Weiner was kicked from congress.

What his specs lose in style points he makes up with his perfect hairline.

We need another emoji for moments like this Myst.

A silhouette of a guy on his hands and knees bent over an open toilet puking into it.

Question:  Isn't the standard answer from a judge he/she cannot comment on an issue that may come before the court?

It is, and it's why I think Schumer is starting eclipse Mad Maxine for stupidity.

It is.  I think Schumer is trying to preemptively make that an illegitimate answer.

Yes. Still, this gives him more continuing input on the process than the nut from PA who already said he’s opposed.
