[Breitbart] Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Monday on CNN’s "This Morning" that he was meeting with Senat Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) in the wake of midterm election results to convince Republican senators to ditch so-called "MAGA Republicans."
Co-host Kaitlan Collins said, "Are you going to talk to Mitch McConnell? What does that look like?"
Schumer said, "I’m going to say to the Republicans in the Senate who are not the MAGA Republicans, stop letting them lead your party. Work with us to get things done. I intend to sit down with Mitch McConnell and express that."
He continued, "I intend to sit down with him and say we should be working together. You’re not going to get the extremists in your party to work with anybody, but the rest of us can work together and get some real things done for the American people."
Co-host Don Lemon asked, "I’m wondering what is different? What is going to be different this time with the MAGA Republicans? You said that before. Please work with us. Why is it different this time?"
Schumer said, "It’s different this time because they lost. The red wave proved to be a red mirage. And one, not the main reason but one of the main reasons for sure, was that average American folks, even those in the middle, even those who tended to be Republican, said, ’I’m afraid of this MAGA. They’re trying to ruin our democracy.’ If you look at the numbers, if you look at the results of the House and Senate, the MAGA Republican way didn’t work. The MAGA Republican candidate, across the board, lost. If you’re a good leader of a Republican Party, you say continuing to follow them is a path to disaster."

I was trying to tally the likely composition of the remains 7% of the American electorate who still have a positive perception of Minority Mitch. I had RINOs, CCP operatives and metal hospital patients. Looks like I can add in Chuck Schumer assuming he doesn’t Venn Diagram himself into one or more of the other groups.

Our political system has devolved into a collection of committees that insulate themselves from the electorate.
It has to change and they are arrogantly signaling that it will not change at the ballot box.

It's not going to change until a crap ton of upheaval gets the ball rolling. The ballot box lies in ashes right in front of us as we shuffle about wondering where our COLA went.

The uniparty. They're united against us. Whether D or R, they serve nothing but power. Their own power.

I've always loath Chuck. He's the smug smarmy politician you roll up the newspaper and swap him on the nose.
Just own up and call for gulags and killing fields. That show those deplorables to never again interfere in his democracy!
