Consider he can’t handle to NOT voting for another fascist cabinet member, yeah, screw this ineffective asshole.

    I have despised this craven, insipid, spineless weenie ever since he collaborated with a clumsy Republican smear campaign to ruin Al Franken’s career.

    Since then, he has been ineffective at best, and has been a cowardly collaborator at worst. It’s time for this loser to be removed from office, let AOC take his place, and be replaced as Senate Minority Leader by someone bold enough to go toe-to-toe with the MAGA Nazis.

    He’s not struggling to meet the moment, he’s struggling to hold his own party down. Make no mistake, that traitorous bastard is a collaborationist Vichy-Democrat, a blue-dog-Republican snake. He wants as little to be done about the exploitation of the nation as possible, so he and his doners can reap the rewards.

    “Struggles” is being generous. He is intentionally not fighting. The elderly leadership and all the AIPAC loyalists within the party major road blocks to any form of fighting back.

    Chuck Schumer is running the bet that the GOP will implode before the whole country goes up in flames.

    It’s solely a hedge to save his party and capture as much power as possible.

    Maybe it works but it was never for you. Unless you believe the democrats are actually “elites” that deserve to be in charge.

    Personally, I think their time has come and gone and it’s a crying shame they were never once put together well enough to do something for those that come after.

      “Leader” of Senate Democrats. I put that in quotes because I’m not seeing any leadership out of the guy. He needs to go.

      Despite his name being the title and half a dozen times in the article, it will forever be a mystery.

        He does nothing. In theory he would be an opposition leader but he’s happy to play the “not quite as bad as Trump” role, which means he won’t do anything to actually stop Trump.

    Nobody appreciates the artistry that goes into writing a good angry but very polite and subservient letter these days.
