Senate Democrats will not let Trump put a ‘right-winger’ on the Supreme Court, Schumer vows
Schumer says Democrats will force Trump to choose more moderate judges and can block nominees with a Senate majority, he said.
- Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer vowed on Thursday that Democrats will block President Donald Trump from appointing a "right-winger" to the Supreme Court, following the party's decisive midterm victories.
- Schumer attributes this year's wins to successful candidate recruitment and a focus on local issues in Republican states, securing a "durable majority" after 20 years of effort directly or indirectly leading his party's campaign operation.
- Pouring $67 million into key races, Schumer supported candidate El-Sayed and helped Democrats flip seats in Ohio, Maine, and Iowa by targeting Trump's tariffs and his war with Canada as local issues.
- Maryland Sen. Chris Van Hollen said Wednesday that Democrats need an "open and honest discussion" about the next leader, though Schumer stated he is focused on 2027 after becoming Senate leader in 2015.
- Democrats aim to halt the Iran war and challenge Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, but Schumer would not commit to eliminating the 60-vote filibuster, complicating the party's path to passing legislation with Republican support still required.
