He’s almost making the case for not having a security detail.

Notice he didn’t imply anyone else is safe, or even that he is safe. He said he “feels” safe.

He said he’ll fight Trump’s attempt to extend control “tooth and nail”. Since the people of DC like feeling safe, that’s exactly what I hope the dumbocrats continue to do.

Grok

As Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer has a 24/7 security detail from the U.S. Capitol Police. The exact number of armed bodyguards varies but typically includes 2-5 officers at all times, based on threat levels—public details are limited for security reasons.

He does not walk in DC without armed security; protocol requires protection for leaders, despite his claims of feeling safe on walks.

But the Baileys don’t have a security detail protecting them when they step out of their security vehicle.

Doesn’t everybody have a full time security team?

Maybe Fox News could ask him to walk around DC without his security guard at 3AM... they can film from a distance. Let see if Schumer is willing to put himself in the spot ordinary citizens are in...

I agree with Schumer on this. I too feel safe when visiting DC.
Here I am, heading to the city to take in the sites.

(I put MTM on the front because I’m a fan of Mary Tyler Moore.)

“”””Maybe Fox News could ask him to walk around DC without his security guard at 3AM... they can film from a distance.””

Tell him to put a GoPro camera on his head and walk around at night alone until he gets attacked. We could all place bets on when it would happen. Make it a reality show.

Like I’ve said before. If the illegal aliens and criminal wannabes start attacking government officials like Tumor ... I mean Schumer then they will start supporting deportations for the illegals and harsher prison sentences for law breakers.

Drop him off downtown at 2am with NO security detail, no shoes or weapons....let’s see how he does over a couple of hours or so of wandering around in his socks.

Routinely, whether it is crime or some other topic, most congresscritters see political issues thru a narrow, warped perspective of 1) their own experience 2) What they were taught in school/college 3) what they see on CNN/MSNBC.
