WATCH: Schumer says "our democracy will be at stake" if Trump disobeys the Supreme Court—but "we're not there yet."

Me: "So, no worries about the Republican Supreme Court handing out another Trump v United States?"
Schumer is living in a place that's a long time gone.
As if this is the very first time he’s thinking about our descent into fascism.
Schumer, It's not like it's next year dumbass. My God where is your reality.
SCHUMER: Perhaps, but Trump has not yet run afoul of the Magna Carta, for which we remain vigilant.
If you aren't exercising it every step along the authoritarian track, there won't be a movement sufficient to do anything when it's time
step down old man.
He sure is a fighter. Always saying he just can't fight yet.
I mean, maybe he pre-scheduled them in hopes of selling his book, but oof, it was not the time then, and it is certainly not the time now.
Schumer thinks we’re not in crisis until a case makes it way to SCOTUS and Tr*mp defies the ruling.
By then it’s too late!
Aside: What if SCOTUS doesn’t take a case that comes to them? Does that mean there’s no crisis?
we are not being led by serious people.
This makes him Cretaceous instead of Jurassic, but still. We’re waiting for the mammals to step out and take over.
But if I had that giant hook, I’d use it on the two criminal megalomaniacs currently in the White House.
The hook and he sweeping a broom to rush someone off stage are Apollo things, yeah?
Also, white clown from Nat X.
Thanks to late Saturday nights on NBC

I used to work the graveyard shift at a tv station in Korea, and we would play Showtime late every night.
(You forget that the syndicated "Showtime At The Apollo" followed SNL for years! I miss it!)
Stooges were on every Sunday afternoon here in Sydney in the 80’s when I grew up. Abbot and Costello and Elvis . On loop
I was often awake until 2am in my younger days.
I'm more a gong guy, myself.
And when he says "levers" that's when the hook moves.
This reveals he’s still playing politics, he’s still pulling his punches, he’s hedging.
This is not the behavior we should expect from our opposition leaders in this watershed moment.
-Chuck Schumer, essentially
Surely there's enough representation with scraps of determination to oust him from leadership?
He's acting like a retired person.
He should retire.
It's time to chuck Schumer.
I was thinking The Gong Show might also metaphorically apply.
Who is this *gestures around* we? Because no king has broken the law since?
8 years ago.
Look it up. That is treason. Aiding and giving comfort to an enemy of the United States
he committed TREASON . IMPEACH AND IMPRISON the Tramp !!
STEP ASIDE
Go away
Why do we need to wait for the goddamn inevitable???
Good Night 🛌🍷
