Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York is threatening political payback if congressional Republicans and President-elect Donald Trump try to undo President Barack Obama’s major legislative achievements.

>>“They will rue the day” they repeal Obama’s health care law<<
Yeah, everyone is ascared of you.
I think he’s right.
Repeal. AND REPLACE.
This sleazy douchebag needs his head handed to him
Just wait til Obama’s rate hikes hit next month. That will be the perfect political segway to killing this awful law..
Was SCHUMER mentioned in WIKILEAKS? Just wondering.
Repeal, and REPLACE.

Lots of changes in employment status, during the previous administrations. Lots.
Repeal and replace Obamacare. The second half of that statement, is what Donald said, as well as the first part of that statement.
I wish I had a dump truck full of vomit that I could empty on Chucky’s front porch.
Awesome, Chuck. Thanks for the 10 more Senate seats and un-filibusterable supermajority in 2018!
“Schumer is everything which is wrong with American politics.”
Yup, he’s a Democrat. Nuthin could be more wronger’n that.
:)
Harry Reid took any leverage Chuckie thinks he has or had...
Reid already blew up the Senate by using the nuclear option...
Unless the post turtle stabs Trump in the back, which is entirely possible...
The couple of other senators need to catch that loud mouthed punk in a Senate office building restroom and give him a swirly..
Oops!
A couple of other senators...
