"My job is to keep the left pro-Israel" -Chuck Schumer

This is why democrats lost. They don't care what their base wants.

America's so stupid this man is considered left.

His job is to keep the left pro-genocide?

Lord, I hate establishment Dems.

Anyone got a non-paywalled source for this? Chucky’s not usually this mask-off

Thanks for the ladder @Gem

President Trump accused him of being “a Palestinian” who was “not Jewish anymore.” A few days later, Schumer decided to postpone his book tour after joining Republicans to support a stopgap spending bill to avoid a government shutdown

And they say women are too emotional to be in office 🙄

A Jew stands up for his people regardless of the cost, and regardless of the politics of it. On this, Schumer has acquitted himself bravely.

So move to Israel if you want to stand up for them. They'll give you land.

Must be tricky getting lefties to support a fascist religious ethno-state responsible for killing 50000 children in the past year alone.

If he was serious about that aim, wouldn't he be trying to stop the Palestinian genocide? That's a big factor in why so many people no longer support Israel. Bombing hospitals and daycares is never going to be popular with "your" base, Chuck.

What the fuck would he know about "the left"

Has he tried convincing Netentahu to not do a genocide? That'd be a lot easier than convincing a bunch of folks that they should support a genocide

Money talks. According to Open Secrets he received $1,727,974 from pro-Israel lobbyists

My sole job as an elected representative is socially engineering acceptance for a foreign population.

I don't think this is the flex he thinks it is.

Listen we, the Democrats, are pro insider trading and baby killing. If you have a problem with blowing up a hospital full of poor people, then this just isn't the party for you. Fuck you.

Keeping the world pro Isreal should really be Benjamin Netanyahu's job. Obviously he's not doing that job though.

For establishment dems sticking with israel was always more important to them than beating trump, and chucky still cares more about israel than helping americans oppose trump's policies. The dem establishment is such a thorough failure that I hope it goes extinct

Fuck Israel.

This is why Dems struggle, despite all this bullshit because the leadership is these ancient stupid fucks.

I hate chuck

I hate Netanyahu

I hate the genocide to human trafficking pipeline they have going on.

like what the fuck is that

is he trying to be a comedian like his cousin amy schumer? its also the same buzzwords fetterman used it, aka PRO-AIPAC words. as soon as schumer said "the left" you know hes a right winger.

This guy needs to go. Nobody needs an ethno state.

Was this guy born in the US? He's like the most obvious Mossad plant ever. He's literally admitting to it.

Apparently the survival of America isn't as important.

His job is to pin up the carcass of America to be stripped to the bone while carving out his little bit before the cult fully takes over.

When the feeding is over, he'll just catch a plane flight and get out of the country if things get really bad.

Anti-Catholics in the 1960s: "You can't elect JFK to the Presidency! He'll bend his knee to the Pope!"

Liberal Democrats in the 2020s: "We're bending our knee to the Likkud party chairman".

The pro-Israel propaganda machine is finally starting to falter. What sealed the deal for me is AIPAC going around getting the states to outlaw Israel being boycotted.

That's always been my problem with Israel, America writes them blank checks on the regular and even funds their single payer healthcare plans, meanwhile actual citizens of America get table scraps, but only if the Government is filling particularly generous

Maybe one should hand him the job description, and have him read it again. He seems to have forgotten what his job actually is.

Isn't that just treason even if it's an ally? I can't imagine any European leader ever saying "my job is to work for our ally" I publicly - them are guillotine words

He failed.

The only thing I take issue with here is the notion his constituents are leftists. His constituency is the entire state of NY. He should represent everyone sadly he just represents Wall Street and AIPAC’s interests.

When will Chuck learn that people are realizing the truth about Israel?

The Democratic party is honest to God just entirely summed up with taskfailedsuccessfully.jpg isn't it?

How's that been going chuck?

Why would he need to keep the left pro-right?

So grows the failure pile.

what he means is to keep the democratic party pro-genocide.

your job is supposed to be representing your constituents you nazi collaborator piece of shit

I will give him a pass if more people called in and told him to go pro-isreal. Then yes, he was doing his job.

I don't think he got those calls honestly.

What the fuck is that caption.

As your basic Independent/Democrat ... I don't give two shits about the Middle East. They were killing each other a thousand years ago, and a thousand before that ... nothing will stop it. A politician should not be more worried about the middle east than his own country.

I am pro-Israeli the people but not pro-Israel the government maybe it’s because I’m not American but what is he doing to further this goal?

That's Bernie's job

"Keep" lol.
