Schumer told Annie Karni and Luke Broadwater: “Here’s my hope … after this election, when the Republican party expels the turd of Donald Trump, it will go back to being the old Republican party.”

Because surely it's only Trump in there creating and enacting all this.

Me thinks that ship has sailed

In the spirit of that scatological metaphor...
"You can want in one hand and crap in the other and see which gets full first."

He's delusional

bonobo.bsky.social•39 days ago

It’s like he never encountered a republican in the wild.

kaymaezay.bsky.social•39 days ago

...and I believe in the tooth fairy, too.

jmwarren.bsky.social•39 days ago

Proves he is delusional and incompetent

henryt.bsky.social•39 days ago

Good luck with that Chuck

launcemustoe.bsky.social•39 days ago

Oh, sweetie, no.

jennheflin.bsky.social•38 days ago

Well, guess I’ll be calling my senators again to demand he step down as chair.

kbremote.bsky.social•38 days ago

Chuck, making a strong case for a Senate age limit of...I guess 72?

theothermatthew.bsky.social•38 days ago

The Republican Party that has run him for three presidential elections in a row? Is going to expel him? Sure, Jan.

I will never forget a quote by Jim Carey during a commencement address. “Hope is a beggar….”

Chuck:
1. Aggrieved white dudes lost their minds under an Obama Presidency,
2. Remember the Tea Party aka Freedom Caucus?
3. You’ve been in the Pol. Bubble too long and have lost all perspective.
4. Help us help you. Go home.

sloan11.bsky.social•39 days ago

Jesus. How fucking naive, Grandpa Schumer.

jimmyjamers.bsky.social•39 days ago

This guy is a fossil. His brain is fossilized and he needs to go.

geeknomad.bsky.social•39 days ago

Fing out of touch. Time to go

asmrrmsa.bsky.social•38 days ago

This is why Schumer and establishment democrats need to go. They continue to cling to a political order that no longer exists.

hughlec.bsky.social•39 days ago

Things that will never happen for several billion dollars (or is it not Bitcoin?).

Delusional

mtnthc.bsky.social•39 days ago

Lol, Schumer is talking about himself. Time to expel that turd.

pro-tipz.bsky.social•38 days ago

Oh honey. Smdh

travishampton.bsky.social•39 days ago

Delusional

“Thoughts and prayers”.

With emphasis on the prayers.

notquitefive7.bsky.social•38 days ago

Delusion is a hell of a drug

Once the nazis get to Paris they’ll turn around

yagotthelastdodo.bsky.social•38 days ago

Omg this was a PERFECT analogy! Schumer’s reasoning is shamefully shallow and not publication worthy.

ettinger.bsky.social•39 days ago

Taken aback at the naïveté. Just a total failure to acquire and accept the state of the body politic. People cannot listen to their better angels if they’ve burned them at the stake. We’re A LOT further down the road than he grasps.

hahtheiss.bsky.social•39 days ago

Could his publisher have possibly picked a worse time for this book rollout?

patsybaloney.bsky.social•39 days ago

Wait a minute, I thought we all agreed that hope is not a plan.

johnwares.bsky.social•39 days ago

Delusional.

quillandsword.bsky.social•39 days ago

Now that is Trump Derangement Syndrome! Thinking GOP able and willing to do constitutional responsibility. Neville Chamberlain couldn’t have said it better

victorwhite.bsky.social•38 days ago

My hope is that Merriam-Webster folks invent a stronger set of words to describe Schumer. "Feckless" and "cowardly" just don't quite do it.

scottyd89.bsky.social•39 days ago

Still doesn’t explain why he voted with the Republicans.

trixienorton.bsky.social•38 days ago

No, it doesn't, does it?
Why support the most unpopular parts of Trump's agenda if you want to be more popular than Trump? It fails a basic logic test.

scottyd89.bsky.social•38 days ago

It really does. I don’t think Schumer is *that* dumb. At least I would like to think he’s not *that* dumb. Gotta see what he does from here.
