He looks like a caricature
I have no love for Schumer and would love to see him replaced, but to play devil’s advocate for a sec, isn’t shutting down the government what Trump and his cronies want? Say the government does shut down, what would prevent Republicans just leaving it shut down indefinitely until all the furloughed employees quit (the same people they’ve been trying to fire unsuccessfully)? Or passing bills to selectively fund only the programs they like while leaving the Dept of Education and others unfunded?
It would be great if our legislators would serve reasonable term lengths instead of coasting on name recognition and being the lesser of two evils in reelections and literally stroking out at press conferences.
Throw his body into the pit with the MAGAts then cover it with a few metric tons of dirt and wait for the muffled screams to die down
He was always a useless shill and so deep in the pockets of fossil fuel interests that he needs a 12 foot snorkel to breathe.
In other words, an absolute disgrace and COMPLETELY typical of Dem leadership of the past 40+ years
That would explain the absolute brain-dead takes he presents - beyond ~1 ft, the air exchange in snorkels doesn’t work right and you end up breathing less oxygen.
But, he hadn’t sold his stocks yet! What do you expect to do?
It would be interesting to see if he resigns. Then another point of data can be added to the ever-running observation of where actions actually have consequences in the us government.
He’s not going anywhere willingly.
That is not a position you are given. It is one you take.
lol R2O is showing the old stripes
