is what to make of things when the Senate simply fails to perform its constitutional duty.

This is the fatal flaw in Diskant's reasoning I think......

US Constitution Article I, Section 5.....


Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member.


The Senate is its own "boss" under the Constitution....it can choose to do or not do whatever it feels appropriate.....and there is absolutely no language authorizing any "waiver" of its power to advise and consent........No Executive and no Court may intermeddle in its internal affairs....
