After the 2022 midterms, Nancy Pelosi, Jim Clyburn, and Steny Hoyer all stepped back from leadership positions to make way for a new generation.

It’s time that Chuck Schumer does the same.

Long past time. He's an ineffectual sycophant.

sakesis.bsky.social•50 days ago

Like now, though.

If it made sense I would leave the Dem party, but i need to vote in the primaries on the local level.

goodkarma1.bsky.social•50 days ago

I know exact what you’re saying.

Rules for the Senate Dems to remove leader:

Just 10 members (20% of the Senate Dem Conference) can call for a meeting of the conference to vote on whether and who shall replace Schumer as Conference Chair and Democratic Leader.

Are there any apparent successors?

kal.sleeplateandhike.com•50 days ago

Booker?

generalxoxo.bsky.social•50 days ago

They had to step back. GOP took over because Biden/Harris was so bad.

csmithpa.bsky.social•50 days ago

They all need to retire. Preferable before their last elections but I guess better late than never

nuttincowboy.bsky.social•50 days ago

Well past time for #SelloutSchumer to go away.

kemccarthy.bsky.social•50 days ago

He needs to just get tf out. Resign and let Hochul assign AOC in his place

diane1952.bsky.social•50 days ago

How great would that be.

Don’t make Nancy sound like a nice soul. She should have given up her seat YEARS AGO to truly make way for a new generation. She blocked AOC not even that long ago. Give me a break

specialistnaps.bsky.social•50 days ago

Chuck Schumer is a traitor and a disgrace. The DNC will get 0 $ out of me until new younger leadership is put in place. Thss country is on a death spiral, and the old guard is packing it in and clutching their pearls.

jennifermc6.bsky.social•50 days ago

But don't hand it to @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social -- she shouldn't be rewarded for voting the same way.

heatheem13.bsky.social•50 days ago

This. So much this.

moparblue.bsky.social•50 days ago

Dunning Kruger something something.

dcor414.bsky.social•50 days ago

Past time

hairygarcia.bsky.social•50 days ago

Well, past time.

retwxman.bsky.social•50 days ago

Not soon enough.

varshapai.bsky.social•50 days ago

Would trade any one of them back in to get rid of Chuck Schumer

old-bones.bsky.social•50 days ago

Chuck is just a scared little fan boy. He can get bent.

patcoach.bsky.social•50 days ago

And take Dick Durbin with him.

kixy1.bsky.social•50 days ago

Nothing like trashing the place be for you leave. What a dick.

drramblings.bsky.social•50 days ago

Pelosi & Clyburn were at least a decade too late. Schumer is a disgrace now. He put one of the last nails in the coffin of our democracy.

kikiandthekats.bsky.social•50 days ago

And yet Pelosi couldn't mind her own damn business not long ago when AOC made a bid for that oversight committee. 😑

snaps17.bsky.social•50 days ago

It’s time Chuck Schumer fucks off.🫰

appledawg.bsky.social•50 days ago

He needs to be primaried

lobsternanny.bsky.social•50 days ago

I don't think any of them stepped away from leadership. I think they simply stepped into the shadows and private club back rooms.

pragprog.bsky.social•50 days ago

Nah Pelosi deserves credit for stepping into a back bench member. No committees, no leadership position. But she does use her tenure to make blistering take downs like she did with Schumer and she does it well.

savvysuzy.bsky.social•50 days ago

way past time, as today's vote showed everyone

proberts01.bsky.social•50 days ago

Agree but Jeffries needs to do better. Schumer is a 🤡. He’s small potatoes.

londoncallingnw8.bsky.social•50 days ago

He's a fucking traitor. He needs to go away & die!

defchefman.bsky.social•50 days ago

💯

cult45parody.bsky.social•50 days ago

WOW! Nancy Pelosi actually stepped aside? First time she’s made a good decision in decades! Maybe she finally realized that America was done with her.

Either way, folks, one thing is clear—I’M STILL HERE. I’M STILL WINNING.
