I think so. They usually don’t go nuts till they are out of power. This appears to be preemptive.

My wish for chuckles is to watch him on Cspan stroke out in the Well of the Senate after Tea Party Lead Senators win Majority and force legislation down their throats they way Chuckles et al have done for the past few years.

Can we at least force the Federal government to deport comrade Schumer to North Korea, Vietnam, ChiCom, Cube, Venezuela or some other Soviet Republic??

I see legislation on the horizon that the gop-e and democrats are going to agree on.

Schumer said one way to "lessen the grip of the tea party on the electoral process" is to have a primary where voters of every party can vote, leading the top two vote-getters, regardless of their party affiliation, into a run-off.

That is a great idea Chuckie! Think about that VA senate race; the GOP would have won moving away if there had not been a 3rd party.

The Tea Party is only 18 percent of Congress. They must be really scared of it getting to a larger number.

I would recommend an enema to “lessen the grip of Schumer”.
