Sen. Chuck Schumer blames Trump for partisan roadblock: ‘He doesn’t consult us at all’
Washington Times ^ | Apr. 30, 2017 | S.A. Miller

Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer said President Trump has made little progress on legislation because he pushed a “hard-right” agenda and refused to work with Democrats. “On the issue so fare — taxes and health care — he doesn’t consult us at all,” Mr. Schumer said on “Fox News Sunday.” “He puts together a plan that is very hard-right, special interest [and] wealth oriented and says the way to be bipartisan is to just support his plan. That’s not the way America works.”

“On so many of the major issues, they’ve gone at it alone,” said the New York Democrat.

Earlier Sunday, Mr. Trump tweeted that Democrats had become the “party of obstruction.”

The president said the Democrats were marching in lockstep against every proposal he made for purely political reasons, despite the potential to do something good for the American people.

Schmuck Schumer is a low down gutter skunk. Simple as that. Worse than Dirty Harry Reid and punk dashelle. Three disgraces to America. All democrats.

Whines creepy weasel Scummer (in that grating, used-car-sales way of his):

‘He doesn’t consult us at all’

One highly suspects that if President Trump consulted w the Dems, they would find a way to spin a dozen critical soundbites, and their media wing would splash them all over the tube.

I’m sure that Schumer wants to make sure that Trump is aware of the federal government’s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers and associated limited power to appropriate taxes. /sarc

Okay Chuckie, give us a list of Government Agencies that should be closed down or downsized. Also include any ideas to reduce Federal Government spending.

Oh yeah, make sure to leave the Military off your List.

We’ll wait...

Zactly. The POTUS is the man we’ve needed for 28 years, viz. a businessman, not a politician. That Rat Schumer is whining that Trump isn’t playing the political game. POTUS’ playing that game are the reason America is almost lost.

Obama To GOP: ‘They Can Come For The Ride, But They Have To Sit In Back’

The ball is in President Obama's court to reach out to Republicans if he wants a bipartisan bill on healthcare reform, House GOP Leader John Boehner (Ohio) said Monday morning.

Yesterday he went after the democrats during the Harrisburg rally. He froze Schumer and Liawatha in the crosshairs. Those are the "intellectual" heads of the party.

He is addressing them, however they are too intellectually weak to understand.

The government that the Founders gave us has very little in common in what we see today. I despise political parties. Love or hate President Trump, he leads by what is best for the country he serves. The Uni-party of “D’s” and “R’s” are a bunch of whores, thieves and pigs.

Only intelligent people are consulted. Idiots like you are not consulted.

Chuck Schumer has had a “****-on” for Trump, ever since Trump started running for President.

Why, you ask?

We have heard candidate Trump say that he would give money to both Republicans and Democrats, right? President Trump lives still, on occasion, in Manhattan, correct?

What is at the southern end of Manhattan? Battery Park.
Where is Chuck Schumer’s office in NY? Battery Park?
Was Chuck Schumer getting money from Mr. Trump? Yes.
Is Chuck Schumer getting money from President trump? NO.

What is the worst thing you could do to a N.Y.C. Democrat?
Take away the money he was so used to getting from you, year after year!

Chuckles, I was surprised how much gas you expelled at the inaugural. And you haven’t stopped spewing nonsensical BS since.
