Why Chuck Schumer Holds So Much Power

Posted on 12/23/2018 8:21:49 AM PST by cotton1706

Because 79% of the Democrat caucus has been elected since 2006, and Chuck Schumer hand-picked most of them.

They are loyal militants dedicated to the socialist cause.

Hopefully this “shutdown” leads to the ultimate divorce. We need to stop calling this the “United” States. We’re not united, we have irreconcilable differences - we have nothing in common with Democrats. Let’s get this marriage over.

To: morphing libertarian

I disagree: With very few contrarians (read: conservatives) to disrupt things, the RINOpublicans became the Controlled Opposition Party (COP) that replaced the Grand Old Party (GOP) after WWII, when the Kristol-type (Irving, not William) Neoconservatives usurped the party.

That is why they have hated nationalists and conservatives ever since: Goldwater, Reagan, Buchanan, Trump.

They are very united in blocking Trump and furthering the DemoKKKrat agenda.
