They did view it.
What they are supposed to do is advise, which they did, and consent or not.
How they advise and present that advise and how they announce the consent is entirely up to them.
Harry Reid changed Senate rules and procedures constantly. The Constitution says nothing about that.
Both sides can blather all they want, but in the end how this happens and how long it takes is really up to McConnell and/or the rules committee.
