Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) softened his comments about Supreme Court Justices Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh Thursday amid a sustained howl of outrage from Republicans.
NARRATOR:
“The Senate Republicans were quivering, but not with indignation.”
The Repubs seem to be just waiting for things they can quiver indigently about
… Says the guy who encouraged supporters to beat people up and said he’d pay their legal bills…
Sustained outrage
Ya Boo Fuckin hoo hoo
Roberts and the rest of that crew know the court is stacked
Kiss My Ass
Two words
Merrick Garland
He should be there
#Fauxrage.
Grassley gives me the quivers. Not in a good way (that I can tell you).
So Trump still doesn’t know that members of Congress can’t be impeached.
I like Senator Schumer, but this demonstrates why Liz Warren should be Senate Majority Leader after the election.
“Shifty Adam Schiff is a CORRUPT POLITICIAN, and probably a very sick man. He has not paid the price, yet, for what he has done to our Country!” - Donald J. Trump
And where was McConnell’s “no matter the intention, words carrying the apparent threat of violence can have horrific unintended consequences” concern? Where was the Republican ire about Trump’s remarks? Where, precisely, did CJ Roberts condemn Trump’s comment as “threatening statements” “inappropriate” and “dangerous.”?
For once I agree with Trump: “If a Republican did this, he or she would be arrested, or impeached. Serious action MUST be taken NOW!” “There can be few things worse in a civilized, law abiding nation, than a United States Senator president openly, and for all to see and hear, threatening the Supreme Court or its Justices Representative. This is what Chuck Schumer Donald J. Trump just did. He must pay a severe price for this!”
Republicans. Even their ‘outrage’ is hypocritical.
Comments about violence will not be tolerated from elected officials!
I could shoot somebody on Fifth Avenue and they’d say “sir, we want to give you a parade!”
I’m not saying Second Amendment people should go around murdering people they disagree with politically, but tee hee.
Cryin’ Chuck is just quoting Bart O’Kavanagh’s own nasty words back at him. BFD.
If the country isn’t ready for a woman president, who evidently couldn’t find enough support even in MA in a primary, why would the senate choose her to lead.
Still can’t forgive Schumer for forcing Franken out.
Fucking sloppy on Schumer’s part. Don’t say anything if you aren’t going to stand by it. Now the morons have yet another scalp and Chuck looks weak.
When was the last time Pelosi misspoke and walked it back? Chuck needs to learn a few lessons from her.
Chuck should have said that and stuck to his words. What a clown he is. But I was never a fan of his at all. He should retire to a nice board seat on Wall Street already.
Trump has the unmitigated gall to criticize Schumer after his own outrageous comments??
Schumer’s point about political consequences was poorly worded and he was gracious to walk the wording back a little.
But when will the chief justice apologize for mischaracterizing Schumer’s obvious point while failing to point to Trump’s much more problematic bullying of two female justices? When will McConnell and company dress down the Angry Orange Toddler for his repeated threats toward the judiciary?
The hypocrisy of these people has no bounds.
“…an injection of partisan politics…”
Senator Grassley is speaking out of his anal pore once again. Please explain to me who every single “conservative” member of the current Court is not there because of partisan politics.
