>>His bombastic style and disdain for policy detail
Barbara Boxer?
Shelia Jackson Lee?
Chuck Schumer?
So many engage in both of those practices and shrug off the errors
I’m not disagreeing with you but I have always found Schumer’s delivery almost flatline although his rhetoric is hilariously over the top, written as it is by his red diaper baby staffers.
Schumer planned to do a McConnell...he was either going to be a majority or a minority power behind the throne type but events and seniority cast him into the role of nominal leader even though he couldn’t lead a fish to swim.
And so he has been more visible than even he would like. Every time he reads his little prepared statements it’s obvious that he has never seen the text before in his life - he’s too busy schmoozing and eating at posh restaurants. His glasses slip down his nose and he attempts to sound earnest and principled but he is a fraud as bad as the Cardiff Giant.
