Consider he can’t handle to NOT voting for another fascist cabinet member, yeah, screw this ineffective asshole.
Schumer is a deer in the headlights at this point. If we’re being generous, he’s useless. If we’re being honest, he’s a fascist enabler. And fascist enablers are fascists with extra steps.
I’m going to say something controversial to some of us: It’s because Jewish people are the fascists this time around. Israel is a militarized police and tech surveillance state whose leader will be ousted if the war stops so he went on the offensive. Chuck is receiving money from AIPAC and doesn’t want the campaign cash to stop so he’s looking the other way while the fascists take over.
Zionists to be specific. It’s not all Jewish people.
Every Jewish person I know is opposed to aid for Israel, supporting their genocide and very vocally supportive of Gaza/palestine and very critical of Israel-the-country
It’s not that he’s Jewish. He’s just a prick.
As a Palestinian I keep feeling the need to bring up that we have no issues what-so-ever with Judaism or people of Jewish faith. But I hate Zionism to my core, and I strongly commend Jewish people against Israel. I genuinely want to thank your Jewish friends for making a choice
I’ll pass it along, but I can tell you they’re going to be a bit confused and say “it’s just the bare minimum,” or “it’s just the right thing to do.”
(that was their response when I expressed my own gratitude and appreciation.)
Those are some good people. I hope one day the average politician is more like them
Zionists are the fascists, not Jewish people.
Elections need to be publicly funded. Money in politics is the source of America’s decline.

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.
Please primary all these dinosaurs, they were old when I was still young. I don’t know your process but please get more progressives in the house and send this current batch out to pasture
Schumer’s seat is only up in 2028 but if enough of his allies - preferably in safe seats - get primaried in 26 and the new progressives hold them in the general election (and hopefully win some back from GOP) I expect he will be forced out of leadership for the next Congress
It has to have enough shift to progressives or else he will take credit and stay on. He will also be ousted if Democrats lose again but in that scenario MAGA will continue unchecked for 2 more years at least

Lol, that one took me a second.
“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.

I mean, if they haven’t already it’s because wiki is slow walking the edit.
They are busy moving the database to somewhere in Europe. Give them a bit.
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.
“Struggles” doing Atlas level lifting here.
Chuck is an absolute fucking loser.
More like coward sell out shows his true intentions.
JESUS CHRIST! Get these old, ineffective fucking fogeys out.

It’s not him. Make room for the new blood.
RETIRE!
As an old white guy, I’m really tired of old white guys.
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.
