Except for "extraordinary circumstances". The death of a sitting supreme court justice fits.

PS Schumer wasn't the senate majority leader, and there were no vacancies to block in the first place.

Schumer is the ultimate Democratic weasel. He's a total sociopath when it comes to politics and the Democratic party and pushing the liberal viewpoint. I don't even think it's about ideology with Schumer, it's about winning at all costs.

These are lifetime appointments. Dying in office is not extraordinary. It is no different than retiring.

Suddenly dying is just like putting in notice that you will be leaving and allowing time for your position to be filled.

And the Democrats never actually refused to vote on a nominee, like the Republicans are threatening. We will see if they actually follow through on their threats.

The only talent Schumer really has is the ability to sense any camera within 1/2 mile while blindfolded.
