Schumer Takes Shot at Clinton: You Don’t Blame Russia or Comey When You Lose to Someone Like Trump

BY: David Rutz July 23, 2017 8:41 am

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D., N.Y.) took a veiled shot at Hillary Clinton's excuses for losing the 2016 election to Donald Trump, saying that "you blame yourself" when you "lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity," not Russia or James Comey.

Clinton has blamed a variety of factors for her loss to Trump, including then-FBI Director Comey's decision-making during the investigation into her private email server use, Russian meddling in the election and the Democratic National Committee.

"When you lose to somebody who has 40 percent popularity, you don’t blame other things—Comey, Russia—you blame yourself," Schumer told the Washington Post. "So what did we do wrong? People didn’t know what we stood for, just that we were against Trump. And still believe that."

Well he’s half right. He is however missing a big component... it also take a certain amount of stupidity to keep believing the MSM’s polls that claim only “40% approval”.

California's massive population of unhinged liberals skew all national polls leftward.

Not likely. There is a behind-the-scenes struggle for the Democratic Party between the Clinton folks and the Obama/Biden folks. Looks like Chuckie has decided to throw in with the Obama/Biden folks.

Ft. Marcy Park is a swell place to hike. And I’ve heard that Bill Clinton would be willing to spot for him if he’s lifting weights. Bench presses would be ideal.

Schumer must be looking to have himself “offed” by the Clintons. Can’t happen to a more worthy “candidate!”

Hey!

You may be on to something. There's plenty of damning evidence to be gleaned from the 30,000 emails.

What if..."somebody"...were to get some juicy tidbits on The Beast, and then attribute them to other "worthy candidates" the likes of say....Howard Dean, Terry McAwful, Stepinawfulpis, Loretta Lynch etc.....

His moral compass has been degaussed since he entered congress.

I guess grooming Chelsea for politics isn’t where the big money is going.

I wonder what the going rate is for grooming a 'Chelsea'?

Chelsea Drugstore was inafamous site in London where junkies could get needles.

At the end of every Trump rally we are treated to Stones song, You Can’t Always Get... containing following lyrics:

I went down to the Chelsea drugstore
To get your prescription filled
I was standing in line with Mr. Jimmy
And man, did he look pretty ill
We decided that we would have a soda
My favorite flavor, cherry red
I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy
Yeah, and he said one word to me, and that was “dead”

TRANSLATIONS of 60s drug jargon:
“Jimmy” — Always assumed it was Jimi Hendrix, who OD’d
“soda” — hypodermic shot
“cherry red” — the blood that tells addict they are in vein

And then there is the HILLARY section of the song:
I saw her today at the reception
In her glass was a bleeding man
She was practiced at the art of deception
Well I could tell by her blood-stained hands

Chucky looks like he needs some exercise! Maybe a nice walk in a park, or some time in his private gym.

Maybe Hairy Reed will loan him his.
