Is Schumer grandstanding or is he trying to pull a fast one?

Apparently Schumer runs the Senate.

Does Schumer have McCain, Graham, and Collins in his pocket to delay for more dealing over the weekend?

Grandstanding trying to whitewash the history of their own actions and announcements to get their ‘grievances’ on the record.

This is all scripted. Schumer introduces a new question, this one on a motion to postpone further voting util April 24th.

The Senate is approximately cordial, and there is no harm in giving Schumer the floor to make his argument.

The "revote" of the failed cloture motion has not been taken, and there is no rule about the interval between first vote and reconsidered vote; only that a motion to reconsider must be entered within a day or two.

Haha, Schumer wants to postpone the vote so the senators can “come together” to agree to the Rats’ demands for a leftist judge.

Just go nuclear and shut him down already!

Schumer is, IMHO, just stalling. Or at least trying to.
