Trump says AOC will challenge Schumer for his Senate seat and ‘kick his ass’
NY Post ^ | Feb. 4, 2020

President Trump predicted Tuesday that Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez will challenge Sen. Chuck Schumer for his New York seat and that she will “kick his ass.”

Trump made the pot-stirring remark during a traditional pre-State of the Union luncheon for TV news personalities. The relaxed off-the-record lunch featured bass and leek soup in the White House state dining room, just hours before Trump delivers the annual address on Capitol Hill.

“I think she will kick his ass,” Trump said in a remark that he placed on the record.

If Schumer were to lose his seat, who would become minority leader, Durbin?

I live upstate and thought her district was part of Brooklyn, but yes, NY 14th is indeed Queens and Bronx.

I thought she represented more “woke” brooklynites, but it seems her district is more standard ranks of the free shit army.

Ummmm, AOC (If the scenario happens, which is close to 0%) would be one of 48 Senators with a minority status concerning her State (Behind the bottle blonde vapid chick)

If you are not Majority or Minority leader in the Senate, you don't control squat and relegated to floor speeches and props in the background performing Party talking points when summoned to the mic.

What if AOC runs for Chuck the Schmuck’s job because of what the president said?

Still no word on what is going to happen to AOC for misusing campaign funds. I guess the answer is- Nothing.

I was referring to Senator Pot Hole’s 1998 faux pas.

“AOC would get near zero votes upstate our outside NYC. She can only survive in her “woke” Brooklyn district”

LOL! Bernie won upstate NY over Hillary in 2017!

Socialism thrives in NY.

You're saying the President's prediction is wrong?

“Who’s seat would Schiff take?”

Diane Feinstein’s when it comes up. I doubt if she will run again.

“And Trump won Upstate over Hillary also in 2016 “

We were discussing Democrat voters.

Feinstein was ready to retire at the end of her last term, but decided to run one last time. I think her term ends in 2024, unless she resigns or something then the guv can appoint a replacement. She’s in her 80’s I think.

Schiff needs to be voted out this year. CA has a rigged system where voters can cross over and vote in the other party’s primary and the top 2 primary vote getters end up on the November ballot. So in a lot of contests you end up with 2 Democrats on the final ballot.

There is some talk that Dr. Drew may challenge his seat. He (or anyone) could challenge him in the primary, and then challenge him again in the general election if he comes in 2nd (or 1st with Schiff 2nd). In either case I’d expect the few GOP voters in that district will vote for whomever the challenger is, even if he/she is a Democrat.
