Senator Chuck Schumer wasn’t won over by any of Neil Gorsuch’s testimony this week and can’t support President Trump’s SCOTUS nominee:

The abortion superfans at NARAL praised Schumer:
.@SenSchumer is standing for our human & civil rights. Thank you Sen. Schumer for voting NO on #Gorsuch! #WeObject https://t.co/nILyvN9KYa
— NARAL (@NARAL) March 23, 2017
Is NARAL inadvertently saying Schumer was NOT standing for progressives’ view of “human & civil rights” in 2006?
Schumer voted to confirm him in 2006. https://t.co/WDVKKKMpxl ht @redsteeze

Times have changed for Schumer.
Gorsuch is the most eloquent, intellectual, ethically sound and knowledgeable nominee in a lifetime.
So of course Chuck opposes him.— RightWired (@_donaldson) March 23, 2017

If the Dems filibuster the Republicans might get a chance to honor former Sen. Harry Reid by using his “nuclear option.”
