Democrats Pick Chuck Schumer to Become Senate Minority Leader
2016-11-17
[BREITBART] Senate Republicans re-elected Mitch McConnell of Kentucky on Wednesday to be majority leader next year, keeping the respected legislative tactician at the forefront when the new Congress begins working on Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
’s agenda.

The chamber’s Democrats replaced their departing leader with Sen. Chuck Schumer
Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower.
, meaning the New Yorker will be Washington’s most powerful Democrat as the party confronts a Republican-dominated government.

McConnell is widely popular among his GOP colleagues and his selection was never in doubt. The 74-year-old has a genteel manner but has proven to be a coolly effective leader, steering his party through a long battle over a Supreme Court vacancy and the stormy ‐ though ultimately successful ‐ presidential candidacy of Trump.

#4  Hillary only was a student of Schumer. If you think Hillary was a lying, conniving, double dealing, self seeking [insert descriptive here], you'll get an idea of what her former mentor in the Senate is like.

#3  Schumer? As Trump might be inclined to say about Schumer: "There's a beauty." He follows in the fine tradition of Harry Reid (sarc.)

#2  WTF

The party of "diversity" and "inclusion" just picked a 1) White, 2) Male, 3) Old Guy and I'm assuming reasonably well off (what most people would call rich) when you know there just have to be other more gender/ethnicly/racially qualified candidates out there. Sound like bigots to me.

#1  Imagining that Schumer might be majority leader would cause a panic attack for any intelligent adult.
