Any politician that answers that their job is anything other than to serve their constituents interests and work to make their lives better doesn't deserve the job.
He's had decades to figure it out. Time to give someone else a chance.

MODERATORS
Yes, and...
To steer the policies of the nation as a whole in a way that his constituents desire, (or for the good of the nation). His role certainly extends to monitoring and defining what the nation does in the name of it's citizens.
But he has done none of that, either.
I'll be cynical, his job is to get elected. The way that has traditionally worked is by making constituents happy.
He is failing at that job because he'll be primaried in his next election.
As minority leader, his job is to become majority leader. Again, traditionally, by making the nation happy with the party. He's failing there because right now everyone (other than consultants) hates his fecklessness. Which is a major drag on the Democrat party.
Senators need to show some backbone and oust him as minority leader, he's failing miserably. They are failing by playing nice with this loon.
TRAITOR 
And traitors deserve death. It's time to start making them afraid. Very afraid.
Treason- The betrayal of allegiance toward one's own country, especially by committing hostile acts against it or aiding its enemies in committing such acts.
Example: These politicians should be tried for treason. https://www.trackaipac.com/congress
His “job” is to serve another country before America. Behold, great leader Schumer.
What a fucking scumbag, cheerleader for genocide, overall garbage human.
I thought he was a US Senator representing New York State. Is New York so expensive he needed a second job?

Its gonna be real fun when more people figure out that the reasons AIPAC isn't required to register as a foreign lobbying group go all the way back to 'the whole Bay of Pigs thing', as Nixon put it.
... Israel kickstarted its nuclear program by stealing fissile material from the US.
And then the investigation into that kinda just... stopped happening, petered out for some reason, and then for the longest time we just had this weird sort of standard where... everyone was 'pretty sure' Israel had nukes, but 'couldn't 100% be certain'.
Sorta like how the Epstein investigations had been... you know, going on for like two decades, and we didn't really hear too much about it untill everyone involved fucked up unimaginably badly.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_affair
And then of course there's the USS Liberty Incident which recently got Ben Shapiro to be extremely defensive about, treating the whole thing as definitevly decided to be a genuine accident, when you have a long history of lots of directly invovled and highly informed relevant people believing precisely the opposite...
You know, like... some kind of half century + long cover up, or something.
By "job" he didn't mean his actual job, silly! That's what, $200K a year?
Chuck can make that much in one night with the right "donors".
I wonder if he gets "donations" from Israel? Hmmm, it's a mystery
Whelp, we can't know, Super-PACs are free speech and all oh well our hands are tied. Sorry, no minimum wage increase this year :(
Holy shit that's brazen. We need to impeach him.
We would need the entire Democrat establishment in senate to vote him out as minority leader, then they would need to have a majority vote to impeach. It ain't happening unless we primary a large number of sitting senators this next midterm.
So yeah, lets primary these fucks.
Primary every one of them.
What do you mean "everyone?"
This ain't exactly the first time he's said it
Yup, and the reason he's minority leader is because he's helping coordinate these efforts and collecting israeli donations for the whole lot of 'em. They're all funded by the same people funding the GOP.
The opposition is an illusion.
If his job is representing Israel, and Netanyahu supports Trump and fascism, then Schumer is working hard on destroying our democracy.
It's what his imaginary republican family wants.
THE BAILEY'S WOULD NEVER DO THAT!
Looking at how piss-poor the Democratic opposition to Trump has been, it's not much of a stretch to draw the conclusion that, at best, Schumer doesn't care, and at worst, he's the captain of the Washington Generals.
Remember this next time someone claims that the Democrats aren't controlled opposition to fascism.

What in the actual fuck.
I'm so very tired of the Israel first policy.
We don't owe Israel any money. Someone explain why the fuck Israel has universal health care and we don't...
I'm so tired of this guy.
Every time I see his dumb face it makes me upset.
It's long past time for the MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries to get the hook, and be dragged off-stage.
Schumer is a fascist collaborator. He facilitates Israeli fascism. He facilitates Republican fascism. Dude just seems to really like fascism.
Chuck Schumer is an odious individual, but don’t ever think for one second that he is stupid or incompetent. He accomplishes every task he sets out to.
Cuck Schumer
“I will continue to fight for it.,” Schumer continued. “We delivered more security assistance to Israel, our ally, than ever, ever before.”
What's a little ongoing genocide between friends? Chuck knows who pays him, and that's who he serves.
wow what a piece of shit. mindlessly pandering to a group of genociders in the midst of a genocide. Is genocider right? What would you call an isreali who's actively trying to wipe out an entire race of people? genocidist? a kapo?
anyway, it's long past time that motherfucker left in disgrace
It's not mindless. Schumer deliberately chose his side long ago.
I believe the term is "genocidaire"
You know, after the Nazis fell, the people in charge of the puppet government in France were put on trial for treason. Just a thought.
That’s a primaryable face.
...Schumer said at a gathering of Jewish leaders and community members in New York on Sunday.
Yeah, they all do this. Should have said gathering of Jewish donors.
It was fun when he called Trump's people "a bunch of fucking liars" but he's one politician who is just as happy, of not more happy, when he isn't in power.
Your job is to represent your constituents. Considering Israel has decided to spend it's money on slaughtering civilians and stealing land, I'd say they didn't really need any 'aide' from the US. Also, the citizens in Israel have universal healthcare, and affordable education and housing.
If anything, Schumer should be fighting to get Israel to give billions in aide to the US. In fact, if they don't, I say cut them off entirely. No trade at all with them, no ownership of us properties, no dual citizenship for isreali's, no entry to the US at all.
Trump spews bullshit about NATO being a bad deal. In reality, NATO is a great investment and had kept the world by and large peaceful for the last 60-70 years
Israel on the other hand is an 'ally' in name only. They spy on, and try to manipulate and subvert the government and officials of their own allies while extorting them for aide, then use that money to kill and enslave people. The world would literally be 20-100x better if Israel had never been created. Or at least created in a way that wasn't hostile to the people who were already living there.
Wasn't there a word for using your country resources to help another country against the will of your citizens?
It's actually kind of worse. He thinks his job is to serve the interests of an imaginary family that votes Republican and are Zionists whom he calls the 'Baileys'.
He is the leader of the Senate Democrats.
Both sides.
Feel free to prove me wrong blue conservatives.
Both sides don't have a masked militia murdering civilians in the street.
