    He said his main goal is bipartisanship, so he’ll vote for it and say, see it’s bipartisan! (Checkmate lefties)

    Not so much fear, rather I just I'm just fully resigned to the fact that NONE of the democratic leadership will have any spine to let the Republicans Mike Pence themselves here because they're too stupid and ego drunk on being the "Responsible White Knight".

    There’s a picture of him caving right there!

    He’s not incompetent, he’s doing precisely what his wealthy benefactors are telling him to do.

    Is it caving if he's only pretending to do it reluctantly?

    I would love for him to surprise me. It most certainly would be a surprise.

    Based on that photo, if you're looking for his spine, I've got bad news for you

    Of course he'll cave. He's part of the establishment democrats that are in large part why we are as fucked as we are.

    If you remove the pomp and cowardice from Schumer, what's left?

    He's gotta make sure the government doesn't shut down so that the money keeps flowing to his corporate national sponsor, Israel, whom he holds most sacred above his own country and constituents.

    Of fucking course he will.

    Of course that sad sack will fold. He’s not an advocate for the people. Get up there with his red glasses and admonish but take no fucking tangible action.

    “Cave.” What more will it take to convince y’all that Schumer wants to do these things?

    The guy openly admitted on camera that his grand plan was to chase Republican voters at the expense of blue collar workers. He has personally sabotaged any attempt from party members to push left policies. He gives the GOP and Trump everything they want, which tracks with him privately bragging about being friends with Trump.

    Schumer fucking hates you. Stop trying to convince this sack of shit to do right by us, and identify that he is also your enemy.

    Schumer will do whatever Israel tells him to do. We should just go directly to Israel and ask them how Schumer will vote.

    Im sure he will ask his imaginary friends as usual and get upset if anyone with the same last name that is real tries to talk to him like usual.

    His only idea of a constituent is his fake ones
