Chuck Schumer: Trump ‘Is Not Leading on Issue After Issue After Issue’
breitbart ^ | PAM KEY

Posted on 10/22/2017 9:12:37 AM PDT by davikkm

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said President Donald Trump was “not leading on issue after issue after issue.”

On health care, Schumer said, “Look, this is a good compromise. It took months to work out. It has a majority. It has 60 senators supporting it. We have all 48 Democrats and 12 Republicans. It will pass, and I believe it will pass by a large number of votes. It will put pressure on the House. What this bill does is prevent premiums from going up 20% even more in some states. That falls on everybody’s back, and if Republicans think that if premiums go up, they’re going to avoid the blame, if Senator McConnell thinks that, he’s wrong. So for the subsidy in premiums, that’s one. Since the Republicans are in charge, they should be coming up with solutions, and their leader did. You can’t say I won’t pass it unless this happens, and Republicans say I won’t pass it unless this happens. The president urged it originally. He called Senators both Murray and Alexander and said come to a solution, then they come to a solution, and he backs off.”

Actually he is leading. Very markedly. It is the RINO Congress that is not leading or supporting.

Sorry Chucky. No politicians “lead”. They don’t know what leadership is. They’re only in it for the money.

Self-hating turd has never held a job in the private sector — the d-bag has been sucking off the taxpayer his entire adult life. Be gone, parasite.

Awe shucks Chucky, you mean he isn't “not leading on issue after issue after issue.” as YOU want done...

Are you saying you just don't have the ‘power’ to ‘control’ this President like the last ones that have been in Office???

Are you saying you can't ‘keep up with what Our President’ is doing to make this Country better for us, the American People rather than YOURSELF???

If the answer to these questions is YES then I suggest you quit and go play golf with the rest of the Presidents that have kissed your butt, because guess what: ‘OUR PRESIDENT WON'T KISS ANYONE'S BUTT FOR ANYTHING BUT FOR OUR COUNTRY AND THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THAT VOTED TO PUT HIM WHERE HE IS’...and he's YOUR President also!!!

... this bill prevents premiums from going up 20% even more in some states

Dems are so lazy and small-thinking. If they can prevent health care prices from increasing in "some states," then why not prevent them from increasing in ALL states? And does preventing them from going up "20% or more" mean it is OK for them to go up 15% or even 19%?

Come on, Chucky, think bigger. Introduce a bill to prevent ALL prices from going up at all. Simply outlaw inflation. We would love you for it, especially those on fixed incomes. It can be done. Do it!

Schumer, heads up: he’s an outer boroughs guy. He’s leading on f***ing your sh*t up, which is why we sent him there.

Okay. I'm pretty sure there's at least one FReeper who has access to President Trump.

Please forward this request to him.

Have President Trump come out with a tweet suggesting that Chuckie The Schumer offer the same tax package and health care to every American that he and his Congressional colleagues enjoy.

What would a democrat know about leadership all they know is socialism by force.

Why is the Minority Leader white?

That sounds racist.

Shumer needs to step down and allow a minority to take his place!

In the minority and Schumer STILL acting like he's the Majority Leader.

10 months completely pissed away by the Stupid Party in Congress.

Entire departments, agencies, and federal organizations should have been abolished. Obamacare should have been repealed. The tax code should be 10% flat - no deductions, credits, or loopholes for anyone.

And then they wonder why Bannon is supporting outsiders. Just mind-boggling how absolutely rudderless and gutless the Republicans are.

Image and video hosting by TinyPic All we heard from these cuckservatives for seven long years, after they all made sure they were on record voting against `Affordable Care' was "Give us what we need and ohhhh--the places we'll go!" So they have both houses & the WH, the president is doing all he can to correct the SCOTUS--and now they sit on their thumbs and rotate.
