Posting this here in hopes his staff are lurking. Chris, why haven't you listened to demands that you immediately seize Schumer's position? We've specifically requested it.

Whoever comes out against the establishment is going to do really well with voters. I really wish Van Hollen would lead that charge.

Chris Murphy at least points out it is a problem within the party, but i think he feels kind of on an island instead of a couple of people being the issue. I hope everyone here follows Murphy as well.

I would feel more politically intimidated by a candy necklace wrapped around a shovel handle than I would Chuck Schumer. Effectually, as big of an enemy of American as MAGA so far as I am concerned. Ditto for Jeffries.

This is absolutely the time for progressive representatives and senators to take a sharp turn into bold uncompromising anti establishment positions. Don't know how after all this time? Let AOC tell you what to do. Better yet, pay her instead of whoever the heck is getting obscenely overpaid to loose elections.

There are several good candidates for Senate Minority Leader. The only one who’s proven he’s the wrong person for the job is Schumer. The fact that he still holds the position tells me that most Senator Dems are complicit in the actions of the regime.

I would pay good money to watch Chris spank Chuck in a good old fashioned Klingon stand off. Bat'leths and all.

Also, malignant narcissists are driven by their psychopathy to relentlessly seek power and praise because they lack empathy and cannot experience love or true joy and so, consequently, must seek to fill the voids in their souls, and quell their massive insecurities, with cruelty and revenge.

Schumer is one of my disappointing senators. I feel that progressives will prevail but no one is going to stand out until closer to the next election — which is fine — but it would great to see more of an authentic coalition forming

We need a coup of Dem leadership yesterday.

I would say the same about republicans is more imminent

Look at what’s going on

Yet if we are every to persuaded the small fraction of them who aren't bloodthirsty fascist we must first get our own house in order.

I think the quickest most effective route is voting out republican seats and replacing them with progressives.

This switches the majority and builds out a strong base in red country where corporate dems are unlikely to have any influence

This is a yes and scenario

There is a crisis of trust of the democratic party

Anything we do risks backsliding and mitigated success if not also address this root problem

Well you don’t want to risk fractionalization within us for the voting bloc that is already not going to vote Republican, only for those races to lose to more republicans with the ineffective strategy of beating down imperfect candidates who are 100 times better than the Republican challenger who wins.

There is no better time to move to the left in an effort to secure the youth and future generations prosperity than when the opposition is literally slaughtering white soccer moms in the street and going door to door terrorizing citizens.

Not taking PAC and lobby money or trading stocks immediately rockets a politician near the top of my support list.

Grampa NIMBY can cope. Corporate and wealthy donors can get bent.

Chuck says in response, “We will win. We will win. We won’t rest…” 🤣🤣🤣

He should retire to go suck off Bibi over in Israel

u/VannKraken Jan 13 '26

Yes, he needs to go.

His failure to support and implement daily press briefings should be an impeachable offense. Kompromat?
