It's not Schumer. Remember, he was elected unanimously back as democratic senate leader after losing the senate majority! It's all of them,the house, senate, and DNC! I still don't know why I should support them,only reason being they are not MAGA! So basically, support incompetence over malicious!

@schumer.senate.gov has no principles

lord-of-the-pyrs.bsky.social•5 days ago

When asked recently if we are in a constitutional crises, little Chuckie said he didn't think so. So sanctioning/threatening judges, incarceration w/out due process, ignoring court orders, usurping congressional powers does not qualify?

Old. Tired.Deluded. Incompetent. Ineffectual.

@schumer.senate.gov isn't patriotic enough to step down.

Sorry CHUCK but you're now the equivalent of week old fish... time to go!

@schumer.senate.gov
- STEP DOWN
The issue is the Senate Dem’s didn’t even put on any display of “resistance”
There is value of "performance" in opposition: Staging a bit of drama gives non-MAGA voters a cause to rally around & make Dem’s positions visible to the MAGA voters who only see Fox

President Biden and Schumer made sure that they got as many judges confirmed as possible. When a party is in the minority, the courts are the only way to stop an autocrat from completely destroying democracy. If the government was shut down, the courts may have been shut down as well.

He may have compromised with the Heritage Foundation, in which case he's there to obstruct any action counter to their agenda.

Too late . He shat the bed in public and has shown his true self.

Chuck isn't about country or even party; he's all about himself & Israel. Whatever Israel wants, it gets w/Chuck's help. More bombs? No problem. Another assault on civilians? No problem. More military hardware to murder children? No problem.

I feel like Mark Kelly would be a good choice too and maybe bring some fence riders with him. I like Elisabeth really a lot. Bernie excellent way for him to finish his career.

His principle is self over country

nikomania.bsky.social•5 days ago

stop, think, what could of happened had country shut down, 45 was counting on it so he could exec order to disband congress for not working, fire them all

middleofissues.bsky.social•5 days ago

So, we should support all his policies because what he might do otherwise? When has appeasing a bully ever worked? Also,before you spout bullshit , do some research. The president has no power to disband or dissolve congress.

It’s more that than.

It’s the failed negotiations leading up to it. It’s the flip flopping, it’s the party betrayals and lies, and it’s the appeasement.
This wasn’t just the CR vote. That was the last line of many errors leading up to it.

mtnlove789.bsky.social•5 days ago

Schumer is a joke.

everythingisjake.bsky.social•5 days ago

The Senate Democrats could force him out with a vote of no confidence… after choosing a successor, to minimize an interruption.

They need someone who is well spoken and proven to stand up for the truth.

Adam Schiff
Patty Murray
Elizabeth Warren

… time for the relief pitcher to step in.

Yes to Liz!!

vbarrington.bsky.social•5 days ago

Chuck does not want to lose his status or retirement plan. He has no insight into his outdated political posture & too arrogant to allow anyone to tell him. Antisemitism is unacceptable but that's the subject he chooses to write a book on? Fascism, corruption, incompetence nepotism not on his mind?

lamiwi.bsky.social•5 days ago

His net worth is 80 million.

muletrains.bsky.social•5 days ago

what do you think his retirement plan is?

vbarrington.bsky.social•5 days ago

The Senate, where old politicians go to die.

digitaldiva55.bsky.social•5 days ago

Nancy Pelosi was one of the most effective politicians to get under trump’s skin and successfully counter his tactics. She had the foresight and good grace to hand over the lead to the next generation. Take a hint.

Fire @schumer.senate.gov

dianeraucher.bsky.social•5 days ago

It is getting damned ridiculous that a faction of democrats are still stuck on this. FOCUS!!!!

frida3rdact.bsky.social•5 days ago

@schumer.senate.gov @democrats.senate.gov these opinions SHOULD MATTER TO YOU. Read the comments here and get your head out of the sand. It could cost us the last chance to #SaveDemocracy and #StopFascism #StopTrump

dc4hope.bsky.social•5 days ago

And Jeffries …

Both are useless and not up to the task at hand!!
Saving our goddamn democracy!

ensignpicard.bsky.social•5 days ago

No. He should resign because he’s an ineffective piece of shit who just runs his mouth and never gets anything done.

ohungerdell.bsky.social•5 days ago

Because it's a task for a more skillful and talented person.

cocozilla.bsky.social•5 days ago

Schumer wants to be there to rake in that sweet sweet Wall Street money and the Old guard Democrats will never give up their power they would prefer to the ground and every citizen in concentration camps rather than give up their power and their money

luazoet32.bsky.social•5 days ago

In any team-sports, corporate-when a team loses, leadership has to step down. It’s a much needed signal. His refusal to leave power is damaging the party including his colleagues. They look weak. The worst thing:he is friends with Trump. We need a fresh leader, I won’t vote D until he steps down!

rayme77.bsky.social•5 days ago

And his brother is a partner at the Weiss law firm. Make sense why he 11th hour changed his vote now.

amanonymus.github.io•5 days ago

You better vote

goldentornado.bsky.social•5 days ago

Schumer made the Democratic party look weak. It's time for the party to buck up & fight Trump & every Republican on every issue. EVERY. SINGLE. ISSUE. They are killing our nation.
