Schumer actually has a great record of getting judges through, they just haven't included a Supreme Court judge because there hasn't been a vacancy on his watch.
If Schumer can get a choice bill through he will be a hero, but the path is through some combination of Collins, Murkowski, Romney, Sinema and Manchin. If I were Schumer, I'd actually look to the Republicans - on Romney, the Mormon religion specifically permits choice and Romney has already held more positions on choice than the rest of the Republican caucus combined. I think Murkowski can be moved to support, but Collins always finds a way to reluctantly and with great concern and worry endorse fascism. But I suspect both Romney and Murkowski could even be convinced to nuke the filibuster on this one.
Again, hero if he can do it. We will see.

This is really the last two years left in the American Democracy.
People saying "Well, New York is safe, California is safe." When there's a red landslide -- they will ram through federal legislation codifying the end of birth control.
