Senator Chuck Schumer has the memory of a goldfish … or he thinks you do.
Someone want to remind him who originally held up COVID aid so they could fund their pet projects like the Kennedy Performing Arts Center. We can assure Chuck, it was not Trump, Senator McConnell, or any other Republican.
This freakin’ guy:
President Trump, Senator McConnell, & Republicans are saying we should delay more help in this crisis
Now they're worried about the deficit all of a sudden when we’re talking about people and workers and families keeping a roof over their heads?
We have to act big and bold NOW

Because if they can’t scare Americans into staying home longer their plans to use the virus to collapse the economy and unseat Trump won’t come to pass.
Oh, sorry, did we say the quiet part out loud? Our bad.
WILD gaslighting.
Democrats delayed the FIRST Coronavirus bill while the House voted on banning flavored tobacco.
Democrats delayed the CARES Act to try to force Green New Deal provisions into pandemic relief.
Democrats delayed Small Biz paychecks.. for no reason at all. https://t.co/29PK90yZGr

BUT REPUBLICANS ARE EVIL!
Or something.
Again, all we can assume is Chuck either can’t remember anything or he doesn’t expect his base to …
Have you guys not been dragged enough for politicizing and delaying EVERY STEP of Coronavirus relief? pic.twitter.com/ed8CjFyqtK

Also THE HOUSE IS ON VACATION. pic.twitter.com/wlStWQWGuK

DRAG HIM, MATT!!!
No. No more wasteful spending. Let the American people get back to work. Your political grandstanding is pathetic and should take a back seat. Check that: you take a seat and shut up.

Chuck should resign to help this crisis.
— Terry LEO (Ret) (@editor_wp) May 7, 2020
Right?
He should be a real helper and just resign.
