Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer bizarrely attacked the Trump administration Wednesday over the successful release of three American prisoners held by North Korea; suggesting the hostages were used as “bargaining chips.”

Schumer offered his scathing critique just hours after Secretary of State Mike Pompeo left the Korean peninsula with the three prisoners by his side; saying “No regime has the right to hold American citizens in captivity without cause, and under no circumstances should American citizens be viewed as bargaining chips.”

“If countries in the world think they can detain Americans and get something in return, we’ll see many more hostages,” he added.

The liberal legislator went on to say he was “rooting for” the Trump administration’s upcoming negotiations with the communist regime but added that “hostages shouldn’t be a part of it.”

Bring on the mid terms.

[Skywise]

I saw this as a gesture of good faith - not a bargaining tactic.

Perhaps Chuckey has some hard info to suggest otherwise? No?

[DungeonMaster]

Incontheivable!!!

[bray]

No dirtbag they were released as a good faith gesture and got nothing in return unlike Obozo.

[17th Miss Regt]

Wow! Up is down. Right is left. ... Chucky is a complete nut.

[Maskot]

Wtf is he even talking about?!? His whole sentence makes zero sense.

Oops! I forgot. It’s a lib we’re trying to decipher. Not possible

[Adder]

why does NY keep voting for this clown?

[Mopp4]

No regime has the right to hold American citizens in captivity without cause,....

But they were being held in captivity Chucky - what did you do to help free them ?????

“If countries in the world think they can detain Americans and get something in return, we’ll see many more hostages,” he added.

Like pallets of cash flown over in the dark of night?

Sorry, Chucky - your pal Obama already set that precedent. Trump didn't have to mail a roll of nickles to fatboy to get the hostages back.

[MUDDOG]

get something in return

They didn't get anything.

I would not object however to giving them Chuck.

[nuconvert]

Lol

[CodeToad]

Schumer is a schmuck.

He’d argue with Trump if trump said it was raining.

[agrace]

Now that is some loony bin level spin. Must be he's confusing a prior exchange involving pallets of cash, a different country and several OTHER Americans.

Haters gonna hate.

I saw this as a gesture of good faith - not a bargaining tactic.

That's exactly what it was and Schumer knows it. He's too full of hate and bile to admit it. It's driving Democrats crazy that Trump is ending the Korean War.

[The Deplorable Miss Lemon]

It’s New York, who else would they vote for?

[Dead Corpse]

Chuck has been dipping into Nancy’s meds again.
