| Crazy Senator attacks Respected Couple |

| Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., caused a scene at a Manhattan restaurant when he began yelling at a wealthy and well-connected Donald Trump supporter that the POTUS is "a liar." Hmm, so is Chuckey. Schumer, the top Senate Democrat, lost his cool on Sunday night at Upper East Side restaurant Sette Mezzo, according to witnesses. He was dining with friends when he encountered Joseph A. Califano Jr. -- the former U.S. secretary of health, education and welfare under President Jimmy Carter and domestic policy adviser to President Lyndon B. Johnson -- and his wife, Hilary, who were having a quiet dinner. Trump derangement syndrome is worse than Bush derangement syndrome. Onlookers said Schumer was incensed that Hilary -- the daughter of William S. Paley, the founder and chairman of CBS -- had voted for Trump, even though her husband, Joseph, is a well-known Democrat. You are a Democrat! Don't you know you can't vote for just anyone? You have no choice!. One witness said of the restaurant rant, "They are a highly respected couple, and Schumer made a scene, yelling, "She voted for Trump" The Califanos left the restaurant, but Schumer followed them outside." On the sidewalk, Schumer carried on with his fantastical filibuster: " How could you vote for Trump? He's a liar" He kept repeating, "He's a liar " Hilary confirmed the confrontation, telling Page Six, "Sen. Schumer was really rude . . . He's our senator, and I don't really like him. Yes, I voted for Trump. Schumer joined us outside and he told me Trump was a liar. I should have told him that Hillary Clinton was a liar, but I was so surprised I didn't say anything." |

| #7 A liberal aquaintence says since she is a Trump supporter and this was on Fox news it's all fake. I pointed out it's also in the Daily Caller, a UK agency and in the New York Post. Still fake news. She voted for Trump therefore she's lying. |

| #5 Following someone outside a restaurant in Georgia as they are attempting to extricate themselves from an unpleasant altercation, could easily be seen as life threatening to one's self and loved ones. A fit of kinetic unpleasantness could easily result. In fact, I suspect you could count on it. |

| #4 Can we have a court look at this evidence and declare him unfit and remove him from office? That might be the best way to deal with it but I'm afraid I would have resorted to a good old fashioned punch in the nose. |

| #2 Ambrose Bierce and the Devil's Dictionary comes to mind as I read this: POLITICS, n. A strife of interests masquerading as a contest of principles. The conduct of public affairs for private advantage. Bierce was cynical about politicians. |
