Excerpt:
Schumer is the sitting member of Congress to whom Trump personally donated the most money, according to Federal Election Commission filings. Over the past three decades, Trump donated roughly $9,000 directly to the New York Democrat’s campaign. Three of Trump’s children — Eric, Donald Jr., and Ivanka — donated a combined $6,800 to Schumer. Jared Kushner, Ivanka’s husband and a White House senior adviser, donated $4,000 to Schumer.

A “hot mic”, yes. A hot mic just so happened to catch Schumer speaking approvingly of Trump, expressing happiness that Trump likes him.

I’m not generally a conspiracy-minded person, but I have no trouble imagining this was intentional.

“He likes me, anyway.”

I wouldn’t be so sure about that, Chuck.

Perhaps if you scroll up and see how much money Donald has given to Chuck you’ll see it differently. There’s obviously something there.

It could be that he’s using Schumer. Quid pro quo.

“He likes us!” Schumer is heard saying, referring to Trump. “He likes me, anyway.”

Um…no.

A creature like Trump is incapable of such complex and altruistic concepts as “liking” another human being.

Now, he might like eating you…

Mr. President, you’ll retain your mercurial reputation if you veer off in all directions, not just in the 180 degree range to your right. He gets that.

Fortunately, the Senator is only pretending to be taken in. He’s been in New York all these years.
