Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer suggested President Donald Trump is becoming a good friend after their handful of productive meetings and dinners.
After Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell's floor speech, Schumer was caught on a hot mic discussing Trump with some of his aides.
"He likes us," Schumer said. "He likes me, anyway."
Schumer added that he told Trump it is sometimes wise to veer away from the confines of the GOP platform.
"Here's what I told him: 'Mr. President, you are much better off sometimes stepping right and sometimes step left," he added. "You have to step just in one direction, you're boxed."

I believe they’ve been good friends for years/decades via NY society.

Anyone who doesn't believe that this was a set-up is a fool.
Schummer is ALWAYS aware of EVERY camera and/or live mic.
"He likes us," Schumer said.
If you heard the recording, you KNOW that that's NOT the way this pussbag talks!

Have fun explaining to your nutball base why you’re cutting deals with Hitler there, Schmucky.

Chuck U. is right. Trump DOES like him. In fact, he has contributed to him and his ilk in the not-too-distant past. This hard truth sucks to say. I was hoping against hope that it was just business, not that that is any excuse.

How about Trump cutting deals with HIM? I was beginning to really like Trump, and then this horror show.

They have never been “good friends” — they each try to use the other when convenient. Schumer loathes Trump with a white hot fervor, and President Trump had best never forget that. Schumer will be back-stabbing whenever he feels like it.

Schmucky Choomer is a pathological liar. I don't entirely trust Donald Trump. I'm absolutely convinced that Schumer is a liar, a cheat, a fraud, a back-stabber and a marxist. So I'll take Schumer's comments as flat-out fabrications intended to push his agenda.
Part of Schumer's agenda is the personal and professional destruction of President Donald J. Trump.

Sally Field, my first thought too...

Much like the Trump-Clinton connection through the years.
