Trump Slams Schumer For Whining About the State of the Union Before It's Even Happened

UPDATE: Schumer responds.

Thanks for watching my speech but you must have missed this line:

“Even more empty than his policy promises are President Trump’s calls each year for unity”#SOTU https://t.co/dtKUKBnNlK— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) February 5, 2019

***Original post***

President Trump took to Twitter Tuesday morning and slammed Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.

I see Schumer is already criticizing my State of the Union speech, even though he hasn’t seen it yet. He’s just upset that he didn’t win the Senate, after spending a fortune, like he thought he would. Too bad we weren’t given more credit for the Senate win by the media!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) February 5, 2019

Schumer took to the Senate floor ahead of Trump's speech and argued for 10 minutes the current state of the country is "chaos." He also bizarrely stated Trump's policies have been bad for the middle class.

President Trump will report tonight on the state of our union.

But, the state of the Trump economy is failing America’s middle class.

The state of the Trump healthcare system is failing American families.

The state of the Trump Administration is chaos. https://t.co/TFZmaoD2Jw— Chuck Schumer (@SenSchumer) February 5, 2019

Last week the economy posted enormous job growth of more than 300,000 new openings. Currently, there are nearly seven million job openings that remain unfilled. The stock market is still roaring.

Terrific news: People getting work who need it most! “For the first time in more than 20 years, the number of people who are out of the labor force — those without jobs and not looking — shrank by 647,000 over the past 12 months."

Sign bills before they read them. Boycott nominees before they’re named. Criticizes speech before it’s given.

“What Democrats used to say”

In his SOTU I wish Trump would read quotes from all the former wall supporters, then give each an opportunity to explain their changed view.

Chuck Schumer has a talent that before Donald Trump became President, nobody even suspected. The Senator can read minds, a most remarkable trait that he only recently discovered, and exercises almost daily.

There really was not that much antipathy between the Democrat party and Donald J. Trump years ago, and if the Clintons had not horned in in the 1992 election with their surprise elevation to the White House, Trump no doubt would have thrown his hat in the ring in 1996, as the DEMOCRAT nominee, with a very good probability that he would have won it then, as a much younger man than he was in 2016.

It’s an all out war. I like Trump’s chances given among his enemies are Putzhead Schumer and shaky Nancy.

In the SOTU address he’s addressing the American people.....I hope he keeps it at that and tells how great this nation is now to where it was headed.

This morning I saw an editorial “response” by the NYT to the SOTU...huh? Maybe they’re listening to those little voices in their heads again.

SOTU speeches should be ended. It is about as interesting as a partisan campaign speech with planted applause at inflections and terribly self serving.....unless of course it is Trump giving his patented anti speech with his off the cuff flair which makes it fun.Every time either party stands up to applaud his party leader’s points it reminds me of why I hate low life sniveling politicians particularly of the Democrat persuasion with the latest and greatest fad of inviting a professional “victim” as a guest to hear the speech. I don’t much care for their “victims” either.I would station ICE by the doors to drag them off.

Trump ought give UpChuck a swift kick in the ass - but it would probably break Schmucky’s nose.
