The distinguished gentleman from Vermont has announced that he will not support Chuck Schumer for Majority Leader of the Senate.
Heck, I wouldn't support Chuck "Strongly Worded Letter" Schumer as leader of Cub Scout troop 153.
Opposition to Senator Chuck Schumer’s return as party leader burst into the open on Capitol Hill on Tuesday as Senator Bernie Sanders said he would not support him and other Democrats questioned whether he should remain at the top after their huge wins last week.
“If this campaign was about anything, it was about change, and the need for the Democratic Party, in my view, to move in a new and bold direction,” Mr. Sanders, a progressive Vermont Independent who aligns with Democrats, said at a news conference following a private party meeting. “I will not be supporting Chuck to be re-elected as the Democratic leader.”
Despite Mr. Schumer serving as the architect of an extraordinary Democratic victory that could end up gaining the party as many as nine seats and the Senate majority, he has run into resistance from progressive groups.
"Architect of an extraordinary Democratic victory?" are you f%$#ing kidding me?
This is the guy who went all in on Janet Mills and Haley Stevens.
That the US Senate was retaken happened in spite of Schumer, not because of him.
Giving him credit for the election results is like giving Jim Carrey's "Fire Marshall Bill" credit for your house not burning down.
