Schumer Exposes Himself On Air — He Immediately Regretted This

Has Chuck Schumer finally lost his mind or is he just as crazy as he's always been? On Tuesday, in front of a camera, he called voter ID a poison pill, not a paperwork fight, a poison pill on camera. He said that he will be killing the Republican bill on the fight because in his words, it will negatively impact voters. Why are they so worried about illegal alien voters? And they never worry about how an illegal alien voting could impact me or could impact you. But I digress. You got to show an ID to get on a plane. You got to show an ID to buy beer, but showing an ID to vote. Whoa, whoa, whoa, bigot. Way too far of a bridge for the Democrat leader in the Senate. To him, that's the toxin. Hit subscribe. This is Resist the Mainstream. If citizenship is the poison, you need to know who's holding the antidote in the drawer and you need to know how underwater the man blocking it really is. My name is Chris Hand. I'm coming to you live from Nashville, Tennessee, Tuesday. This is when it was recorded. Chuck Schumer on camera. We're going to play you the video. They have a stock trading ethics bill coming up today and Republicans bolted voter ID language onto it. Chuck Schumer's word, skullduggery. That's what he said. It's skullduggery, you guys. If a Republican senator really cared about stopping stock trading by members, they wouldn't have loaded it up with a poison pill over voter ID. The March tape still exists. Democrats support voter ID. Then every Senate Democrat voted no on John Husted's stripped down voto ID bill. Passport, military ID, tribal ID, driver's license, party line death. He will tell you this is not about the card, it's about the rules. Homeland Security matching purging, fine. Give him that argument. Argue the matching, but don't call the card poison unless you think proving a citizen is a citizen is the threat. The only thing that cancels a citizen's vote is a ballot that should have never been issued. That's the current fight we're in. It's not a metaphor. Now, when he needs a reasonable Republican to line up with him, which he does in the video we're about to play, the name that he keeps walking out is Mike DeWine in Ohio, probably the worst Republican governor in the country today. This is the same guy who vetoed the bill that would have stopped doctors from putting minors on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones. The legislature had to override this Republican in that case. That's the respectable Republican to the Democrats in this. If your model GOP governor is the one who would not lock clinics away from mutilating kids and putting them on puberty blockers, you're not looking for a moderate, you're looking for cover. Save America Act, proof of citizenship to register, photo ID at the poll. The House has passed version after version of this. The Senate still can't clear 60. Peak support has been 53. Holdouts Trump has named Murkowski, Collins, Tillis, Cassidy, McConnell, some mix of the few. Vance said this week that he and Trump have war-gamed, blowing up the filibuster, but the math problem will remain. Four of those Republicans would not vote to overrule the chair. Ceremonial fight, we would still lose. So they attach a slice to a stock ban, and Schumer is now calling it a poison pill, and the calendar keeps moving towards November with the real bill in the same drawer as last spring. CNN's own numbers on Schumer, completely underwater, plus 53 with Democrats in 2020, minus 5 now. That's a 58-point collapse inside his own party. The least popular Democratic Senate leader that they can find since the mid-'80s. Recruits will not commit to him as leader. AOC will not rule out primarying him in 2028. He is not killing voter ID from a position of strength. He's killing it from a sinking pole and calling the life raft the threat. If voter ID is a poison pill, well, what does he think the citizens' vote is? Let me know what you think in the comments below. Here's Schumer talking about the pill on the floor. With a poison pill, a voter ID bill that would gut mail voting and has failed six times. Their voter ID bill is more stringent than in any other state. That's how much they wanted to kill this bill. Republicans know that no one in their right mind would ever go along with this draconian voting restriction, so they attached it to the bill. And Republicans agree. Governor Mike DeWine, a Republican of Ohio, vetoed a similar mail ID bill in June, calling it a significant burden. The bill is just another desperate Republican attempt to pretend they're fighting corruption when what they really want is to score political points because they know they're drowning in their campaigns. It's a sham stock trading bill, a voter ID poison pill. It is a bill built.
