According to Schumer ""We are dealing with probably the most dangerous and worst man in the presidency we have ever had in the history of this nation" and ""I have will the sole power to determine what goes in the floor of the senate".

Glad, that we have a diplomatic and bi-partisan President Trump who doesn't see as an America First agenda as a partisan issue.

It is shockingly sad days after President Trump talked about bringing Republicans and Democrats together to Make America Great Again, that Schumer started with a divisive message that he was going to have the sole power to determine what goes on and then he calls a great President Trump "most dangerous and worst man in the presidency"
As a Republican I disagree with Schumer but we do need an opposing party as a check and balance on the power of either party, in this case, we need Democrats to do their duty for the nation.


To be honest, I doubt Schumer believes the words he says, he is just playing politics. He actually probably schmoozes with Trump on a regular friend to friend basis and those 2 men can work together which they'll need to do to get the infrastructure bills passed.


Again as a Republican, I think we can work with Schumer however, Pelosi is too extreme and dangerous to work with.

Trump needs to negotiate immigration, infrastructure, longer term budgets with the more centrist Democrat senators from the states he won. There are enough of them to bypass Schumer. It's almost laughable to think back when Obama and the Dems labeled the Republicans obstructionists during Obama's final 6 years when the Republicans, who held congress, actually negotiated several longer term budgets with the Obama administration. Even conceded domestic spending line items to Obama.

Its a very good point, not often referred to.
Republicans definitely did not have the sour grapes we're seeing from Democrats.
Republicans have proven to be very classy by comparison.

Well, in the case of JFK...his platform would be too far to the Right for even the Republicans.

Yeah Trump and Republicans need to work around Schumer. Schumer is a true believer in mass, globalized immigration, majority-minority and American dispossession.

Chucky "The Israeli" Schumer...as I like to call him, is a rabid Zionist who declared himself a warrior for Israel.

He isn't even a real American. Real Americans don't have dual nationalities and divided loyalties and spend so much time worrying about serving foreign interests. Real American politicians only care about the needs of their own fellow citizens...because that is what being a public servant is about - serving the citizens.

The problem is you need 60 votes to pass anything in the Senate. McConnell sees a life with a Dem. majority and will not change the Senate rules.

So Schumer is correct.

This is just blowing smoke in the wind. Just remember what Trump did to destroy our standing in every capitol except Tel Aviv.

He's not blowing smoke but pointing out a track record. And I don't think there should be only one acceptable white ethno-religious supremacist state while the rest are latin-Americanized via mass, globalized immigration and migration. Schumer needs to make Israel diverse first off.
