He is making noises of placation. Truly the Chamberlain of our times...

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Is that Mussolini next to Hitler in the top one? Well whoever they are they look like when your friend has to bring you lunch at work and look completely lost.
Who keeps voting for this clown?! His constituents keep disappointing me like Ted Cruz's.
Just resign already for fuck sake
Schumer is a traitor. You do NOT negotiate with terrorists. You make demands, if they don’t comply, you shut it down.
Shut it down, Schumer. Shut it all down. Call for a general strike and don’t capitulate until all demands are met. This is your move to fuck up, and we will not forget if you do.
Lol the day Schumer calls for a general strike I’ll donate all my existing money to his campaign.
Read: never
He Chuck... try this line on for size: We don't negotiate with terrorists.
You cannot have a serious negotiation with people who aren't serious.
I think they’re bad-faith actors rather than unserious. I’m afraid they’re deadly serious.
We NEED a Serious Negotiation! And if we DONT get it we'll SIGN their Budget ANYWAYS!
-Chuck Schumer!
As long as Americans are loyal to Israel, he's doing his job according to him... So I guess even he thinks he's a failure.
“Now, if the president at this meeting is going to rant and just yell at Democrats and talk about all his alleged grievances and say this, that and the other thing, we won’t get anything done.”
Yeah, that's exact what's going to happen...
If you can't see that coming you shouldn't have car keys, let alone a senate leadership position
How many times do the Democrats need to steal defeat out of the jaws of victory for it to form a clear composite image of collaboration?
There goes my healthcare
If he caves the Dems need to call to replace him. Absolutely failed as a leader here.
I agree, but that's just not the way Dems work.
And here we go, once again into the breach of defeat and capitulation.
Absolutely spinless and worthless Democratic leadership fit for nothing.
A serious negotiation with people who want to destroy the country.
Sure. But a serious negotiation doesn't involve giving up civil rights or empowering the path to fascism. Somehow I don't think Chuck shares my opinion there
Real democrats don't negotiate with Nazis.
I mean... *gestures broadly at everything*
Shut up old man, get out of the way!!!
Primary this fucking fossil. Assuming there’s another election.
Please retire.
Priming us for when he sells us out... Again.
They get either nothing or one token concession that doesn't really matter and then cave, and pat themselves on the back for the great win.
Democrats would brag if they got a rapist to wear a condom. They'd call it a bipartisan nut while we actively bleed to death in an alley.
It's how to maintain the illusion of an opposition party without meaningfully opposing fascism
We need Schumer to be primaried
Shut it down. There won't be any actual negotiation.
It's already completely broken Schumer. It's a rotted carcass. And we all played a roll in that whether we knew it or not.
*role*
roal
roel
Don’t negotiate with arsonists! They want to burn it all down. Be a wall of water!
We've tried making our voices heard with the first amendment, maybe the 2nd amendment should be tried?
I'd prefer to listen to Schumer after he's in the ground. 🤢
Why start then?
Fair, but let's try anyway? We can always forget to listen after it's begun...
Lovely.
