All Hell Just Broke Loose.

Do you want Chuck Schumer to be the Senate Majority Leader? You let me know right now in the comments. Leave a comment right now. I'm going to wait. Okay, thank you for letting me know. Look at all the other comments, and I feel like you'll get a sense of where the base of Democrats are. Most people do not want Chuck Schumer to lead us. Now, we also know that there are incoming senators who have gone on the record this past day. Saying they don't want Chuck Schumer to be the one to lead us. And I don't blame them. Because like those comments you're seeing below, we also have folks who are voters. Who, in my opinion, have more fight in them than Chuck. Look at this nice lady right here. This nice Michigan voter. She actually voted for Haley Stevens in the primary. But this woman's energy shows me exactly where the base is and how the base wants to fight. Watch this. We're on live TV. **** Haley Stevens. She's a traitor to the Democratic Party and she belongs with the Republicans. Trash, trash, dirty trash. Why are you so upset about this? I voted for her and for her to do what she did to Abdul and be such a traitor and stab him in the back like that instead of supporting her own party. And that... We can't take that back. She doesn't belong with us. She belongs over with the Republican Party, with Mike Rogers, another liar, stinking trash eater. Do you actually think now that you voted for her and, you know, seeing your disappointment, do you think that this has maybe rallied Democrats, Democrats that were in doubt whether to even go vote? Do you think it rallied them around Elsayed? Oh, absolutely, absolutely. As you can just see on TV that Abdul is projected to win by a landslide. So thank you, Haley. You belong over with Mike Rogers and that you did us all a favor. All right. Now, as you can see, that woman, I feel like she has more of a fighting spirit than King Jeffries or Chuck Schumer. I love that woman. That is a Democratic voter to the T. We are sick of the ----. We are ready to fight. And if you're not coming along with us to create progress, then get the hell out of the way. Hey, here's Annie Andrews on Fox News of all places saying that. She's not going for Chuck. When you were campaigning, you said, we're not going to vote for Chuck Schumer for majority leader. He's going to have a bigger majority now. Do you still have that vote? I still very much believe that it's time for a generational change on both sides of the aisle. And she's not alone. Abdul Al-Sayed on CNN yesterday said that he would support someone who's not Chuck Schumer. And you introduced Chris Van Hollen at that event as the next Senate Majority Leader. Is that who you want to lead, Chris Van Hollen? I've been very clear. I think he'd be an amazing Senate Majority Leader. Of course, that's a choice he has to make about whether or not he wants to pursue that. It seems like he's quite interested in another goal politically, which Which, you know, would mean that it would be very difficult for him to do that. A vote is a choice between two or more options. I don't know what those options are, but here's what I'll say. But why not support Schumer? He supported your campaign when Haley Stevens endorsed your opponent. Schumer quickly came out and called it a despicable betrayal. Why would you not support Schumer now? Well, to me, it's about action, right? It's not about who or who not. It's about action. But it has to come from a who. Right, I agree. And this is what I'm saying. I don't know who's stepping up and saying, I want to be Senate Majority Leader. If we have another option, I'm going to look at that and say, who is best placed to get us action, to get money out of politics, put money in pockets? Meanwhile, in Maine, Troy Jackson, who did what seemed like the impossible, defeated Susan Collins by a lot, said that he is not supporting Chuck, if Democrats were to majority, would you support Chuck Schumer for majority leader? I've already said that I told Senator Schumer that I'm, you know, going to support somebody else. So there's no different now. But he's probably going to win. So what would you tell him when you get there? He's late for the next thing. On Medicare for all. Now let's move over to Minnesota, where, again, I love this new crop of Democrats. I love them. First off, they're all individuals. Secondly, They're fighters. Here is Peggy Flanagan saying that we need new leadership in the Senate. I would just say this. I am tremendously grateful for Chuck Schumer's leadership and what he has done over the last many years. And I think it is time for new leadership. One of the things that we heard last night, resoundingly across the country is that we are. In a point of a new movement in this country, many of us were elected who refused corporate PAC money, who are beholden only to the people who elected us and are ready to fight for bold change. And so I think it's time for a new leadership. And I'm eager to work in partnership with my new colleagues to get that done. When it comes to exactly who that is, I can't tell you that, but I think that people are ready for new voices and new leadership in the Senate caucus. And it makes sense to me. It makes sense because, listen, voters chose general rational change in November. They did not vote for things to go back to how they were. They voted for youth, they voted for change, they voted for fight. Chuck Schumer represents none of those things. And we actually have quotes from Chuck Schumer saying that he wouldn't confirm Donald Trump's judges if they're very conservative, where I'm like, baby, no, the answer is I'm not confirming Donald Trump's judges, period. Here's Jon Stewart reiterating that fact much better than I just did. And by the way, that's job one of this opportunity, Job one of this opportunity is to tear down the obstacles and old way of thinking that got us into this mess. Someone has to meet this moment and they have got to show, and this moment is not, oh, we get to impeach everybody. **** that. You have an opportunity to actually govern. Do it. Take it. And one of the first things you need to do is remove that system of seniority from democratic politics. It is a bullshit system and it needs to go. And by the way, they're already like, Chuck Schumer deserves a lot of credit for putting together this. Chuck Schumer deserves, Chuck Schumer fought tooth and nail against half of these ******* people. And even if he didn't, he does not understand. The urgency of the moment and what the future demands. I truly believe that. Yeah, from the ******* genius that brought you Haley Stevens. Like, let's... Oh, my God. Let's move on. Yeah, you never see that on the movie poster, do you? Yeah. From the director of Haley Stevens. And Chuck Schumer is fighting for his political future. They're fabulous. We're going to highlight them. You've spoken to all of them. I've spoken to all of them. I've worked with all of them. Troy Jackson, who I didn't support, I've worked very closely with him. And, you know. You didn't support it in the primary, after the primary. The day after the primary we did, and we put $60 million from the super PAC into his race, and that's part of the reason he won. So we are all working together as a team. And I tell people, I'm not the issue. It's staying together on what the American people care about so we can have that generational remaking of the map. So two years from now, we can win the presidency in Iowa. We can win the presidency in Texas. We can win new Senate seats there. That's the key issue here. So Troy Jackson said that he told Senator Schumer, he said, I'm not going to support. I'd like to support somebody else. What are those conversations like? You've talked to every one of these senators. I said, first, during the campaigns when they said this, I said, win. Yeah. I said, your job is to win the seat. We need to take back the Senate. Our enemy is not each other. Our enemy is Donald Trump and the Republican senators who just go along with all the sh. I'm not allowed to say it on the show, that he does. That's the focus. The focus is unity. It's all of us talking out of the same. You know, hymn book, so to speak, and beating Trump, not fighting each other. So let's just go through the list here, because I mean, I don't I mean, I don't know what's going to happen. I mean, we I think we have at least six incoming senators who are saying they're not supporting Chuck. I mean, that six is listen, there's going to be 54 of them. Fifty five. Fifty six. Six. isn't half. So we have a uphill climb, but Julian Stratton, Adam Hamilton, Troy Jackson, Abdul Al-Sayed, Alyssa Slotkin, Peggy Flanagan, Chris Pappas, Annie Andrews. And then here are the folks who declined to commit when asked, Josh Churick, Chris Van Hollen, Elizabeth Warren, Ward Cooper, Sherrod Brown, James Tallarico, Bernie Sanders, Cory Booker. So again, that is not a majority and we needed a majority in order to make sure that Chuck Schumer doesn't take majority leadership. And Mehdi Hassan made a good point here. And he said this about Hakeem Jeffries, but I think it applies to Chuck too. He says that his first response to a Democratic landslide that he had little to do with is to bleat about finding bipartisan common ground. Do you think Republicans would be talking about bipartisanship if they had just secured the biggest House majority of decades? No. It's the same thing Chuck Schumer is doing. He's also pretending like, listen, that this is all because of him. Look at this. Chuck, Chuck, this happened despite of you, not because of you, and we need you to do actually one good thing. That's to get out of the way, allow a fighter to take the lead, and you can mentor this person, but we don't need you to be majority leader. We don't need someone who's majority leader who says that they're going to confirm Donald Trump's Supreme Court justice, as long as they're not too conservative. Give me an effing break. I hope more senators come out. I hope someone comes out to run against Chuck. We didn't just vote like crazy just to go back to these leaders who want everything to be the same. We've got to do something different. Anyways, hope you like the video. If you do, hit like. If you're not subscribed, please consider subscribing, and I'll see you soon.
