Schumer Mangles Texas Saying, Unintentionally Praises Trump for Singapore Summit

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) mangled a famous Texas saying while delivering a speech on the Senate floor Wednesday so badly that he unintentionally praised President Donald Trump for the outcome of the Singapore Summit with North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un.

For generations, Texans have referred to a person who talks big but is unable to deliver as someone who is “all hat and no cattle.”

New York’s left-wing “urban cowboy” reversed the words when he attempted to deliver what he intended to be a stinging rebuke of Trump’s historic accomplishments in Singapore on Tuesday.

“This summit was much more show than substance. What the Texans call ‘all cattle, no hat.'” Schumer said on the Senate floor.

Schumer Botches Punchline On The Senate Floor, Disappoints Texas

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer botched a popular Texas insult from the Senate floor on Wednesday, saying President Donald Trump’s summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un amounted to “what the Texans call ‘all cattle, no hat.'”

Schumer was trying to make the point that the summit had been more about the pageantry than about actually getting anything accomplished, but the Texas expression he tried to quote was delivered backward.

The correct expression, “all hat, no cattle,” is a throwback to the poser cowboys who would adopt the hat and boots simply for the look despite having no legitimate connection to ranching.
