Majority Leader, Senator Chuck Schumer is a little man. He has no interpersonal skills and relies on threats to get his way and intimidate the opposition. Also, he went right from law school into political office and has never made a payroll, landed a new account, exceeded his volume base or carved a handrail. When discussing the Border Bill/Ukraine and Israel Foreign Aid/General Bloated Funds, Schumer issued another threat, especially to military families, that our children would be in a foreign war if this bill wasn’t passed. Pitiful tool.

Remember how Chuck Schumer threatened Donald Trump, before Trump’s 2017 inauguration, in a conversation with the equally reprehensible Rachel Maddow:

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow in response to the president-elect challenging allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

“So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this,” Schumer added.

“What do you think the intelligence community will do if they were motivated to,” Maddow wondered.

“I don’t know, but from what I am told intelligence officials are “very upset with how [Trump] has treated them and talked about them,” Schumer replied.

That’s some crust, right. Then, Schumer threatened Supreme Court Justices:

And now, Chuck Schumer threatens that our sons and daughters will be fighting in the Middle East and Ukraine and Russia if the nearly $120 billion aid package doesn’t pass. I kid you not, from Political Insider:

The pro-war senator told MSNBC that Ukraine’s war against Russia is “our” war that we will “lose” if struggling American taxpayers don’t fork over $60 billion: “This bill is crucial, and history will look back on it and say, ‘did America fail itself?’”

Schumer said this bill is “crucial” because “if we don’t aid Ukraine, Putin will walk all over Ukraine, we will lose the war, and we could be fighting in eastern Europe in a NATO ally in a few years, Americans won’t like that.”

No, Chuck, we won’t like that. We also won’t stand for it, because we know your game. We have seen this play before. Schumer continued:

Schumer wasn’t done with his talking points. Next, he used the Democrats’ latest meme that the only reason anyone could possibly oppose the bill is because of… Donald Trump?

Schumer said that “too many Republicans, including Speaker Johnson, are just scared to death of Donald Trump. Donald Trump has said he wants chaos. Donald Trump has said, ‘Well wait until I become president,’ that’ll take at least a year. Ukraine could be gone.”

“The border will get much worse,” he added. “War in the Middle East will get worse.”

So the vote today failed and now the Senate is going to break up the pieces. From the New York Times:

Senator Chuck Schumer of New York, the majority leader, said that after a critical test vote set for early Wednesday afternoon, in which Republicans are expected to block the border and Ukraine package, he plans to quickly force a vote to bring up a stand-alone bill that would send tens of billions of dollars in funding to Kyiv and Israel.

“We’re going to give them both options,” Mr. Schumer told reporters at the Capitol Wednesday morning. “We’ll take either one; we just hope they can come to ‘yes’ on something.” He expressed confidence that the clean foreign aid bill, stripped of the border provisions, would have enough support to advance.

Mr. Schumer’s tactic could work if the stripped-down national security spending package musters 60 votes, a number that requires the support of at least 10 Republicans and which members of both parties privately said was achievable. That would clear away a major hurdle to the bill, putting it on a path to passing the Senate. But it would still face stiff headwinds in the House, where right-wing lawmakers are vehemently opposed to sending more assistance to Ukraine.

Oh, we know Chuck. We know that you are a midwit cog who could get elected to a Knoxville Homeowners’ Association. If there were a Republican with a spine, he/she would call out your threats. Alas.
