"Schumer takes no action" will be on his tombstone

Truthout@truthout.org

As calls for Donald Trump to be impeached flooded social media after his genocidal threats toward Iran on Tuesday, the Senate’s Democratic leaders put out a statement late in the day that merely condemned Trump’s comment without any vow to take action.

Well, that’s all ANY Democrat politicians did during Trump’s first term and Biden’s ONLY term in office. And, since basically EVERY single fucking Democrat that was in Congress in 2016 is STILL rotting away in there now, I have no idea why anybody expected anything

differently THIS time around! I hear that Nancy Pelosi is finally retiring NEXT year, though, so that’s something I guess. The Democratic Party is still rapidly becoming the ENTIRE gerontocracy in the U.S. government at this rate, though, sadly.

Schumer & Jeffries will go down in history as two of the most cowardly and evil and incompetent humans in all of history. Nothing either can do at this point, short of personally putting Trump down on behalf of all of human society, can redeem either them.

I'd put Mike Johnson ahead of Schumer and Jeffries in spinelessness and complicity, but agree with you completely on all the rest of it as it applies to the three of them.

So, if I understand you correctly, you - a serious person - are suggesting - in all seriousness - that Chuck Schumer, the minoirty leader of the United States Senate, should personally Oswald Trump?

Make no mistake, I HATE whats going on. But legit question, what can Schumer actually do? Like, other than constantly saying he doesnt agree with Trump, what actions are on the table right now when Dems don't hold any meaningful power?

As someone who cannot just leave DC, I have been thinking about these folks--and the fact that when the nukes fly, he and all the others sending out posts from wherever they go when they are not in DC will die in prettier places than the rest of us. In fact, that appears to be their chief goal.

Useless and spineless. I hope AOC runs against him for NY Senator (assuming we have elections in a couple of years.) At the least replace him as Minority leader b/c he is useless.

I understand reading comprehension might be hard for you but this post and the article it's talking about are specifically talking about Democrat Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. I think maybe your brain has just gotten so rotten you've lost the ability to think coherently. I'd recommend logging off.

Oh gawd...Chuckie Shoomuh might be thinking about being somewhat consuhned about a sitting POTUS calling for genosoide...he may have to craft a stuhn respawnse stating how immawral and dangerous such a thing night possibly be.

I used to know, but someone will need to remind me. What's the mechanism for replacing Schumer as Senate Minority Leader?

There is, but the biggest thing right now is to make sure Republicans lose their Senate races this fall. It doesn't matter if we think Schumer is a loser or not: Dems in the Senate don't have any cards to play until then, and no one else wants his job until they do.
