Schumer Blasted by Republicans for Not Allowing Dave McCormick to Attend Senate Orientation
Breitbart ^ | 10 Nov 2024 | Elizabeth Weibel

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was criticized by Republicans on Sunday for not allowing Senator-elect Dave McCormick (R-PA) to attend Senate orientation.

Republican lawmakers such as Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO), and Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) sharply criticized Schumer for refusing to allow McCormick to attend the Senate orientation due to incumbent Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) refusing to concede Pennsylvania’s Senate race. The senators noted that it “shows Schumer’s true character.”

This criticism of Schumer comes as Republican senators have called for Casey to concede the race, as McCormick has maintained a lead over Casey.

“Senator-elect Dave McCormick won,” Cotton wrote in his post. “Chuck Schumer’s shameful, election-denying decision to block McCormick from Senate orientation shows Schumer’s true character.”

“Schumer is not allowing @DaveMcCormickPA to participate in Senate orientation this week because Casey refuses to concede the race,” Rubio wrote in a post on X. “What happened to all the demands that our leaders accept the outcome of the elections?”

“Chuck is an ‘election denier’ and this is an ‘assault on our democracy,'” Schmitt wrote in his post. “Am I doing this right @chuckschumer? Stop being a baby & take the L.”

“As of now, @SenSchumer won’t allow GOP Senator-elect @DaveMcCormickPA to participate in Senate orientation because Bob Casey hasn’t conceded the race,” Mullin wrote in his post. “Pennsylvanians elected new Republican leadership — it’s time to turn the page. Dave will be a fantastic addition to @SenateGOP.”

Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) wrote in a post that he was “willing to personally escort” McCormick “into the Capitol” so that he could attend Senate orientation.

So much for Schumer's call for "bipartisanship" from the incoming majority.

We all knew it was a sucker's and loser's lie from the Democrats.

Schumer undoubtedly wants to help steal Pennsylvania. This is like Red China preventing Taiwan from participating in global health discussions.

He could shoot himself on the capital steps and it would not be enough. Only having his ears hanging on the wall after he offs himself MIGHT bring a little relief for all of the evil this man has done.

Republicans need to find a camera and call him an election denier.

The wouldn’t do it with Hakeem Jeffries.

Republicans should be just as petty toward Schumer but they won’t.

When DJT said that at the roast I loved the look on Schumer face. Trump out classes Schumer hands down.

These “orientations” are the beginnings of the deep state co-opting newly elected republicans.

After the new Senate is seated, Repubs should vote to move Schumer’s office to a broom closet, or a toilet.
