General Discussion

Schumer has lived in the DC bubble for over a quarter century. He’s been an elected official for over 40 years. His net worth is estimated to be $60 to $70 millions, most of that made while in office.

Schumer may know what he’s doing but he doesn’t know how you’re doing. He’s been a member of a genteel monied men’s club for so long he has little to no idea what life is like for the average person. In short, he’s so out of touch with the real wold that he doesn’t seem to grasp the urgency of this moment.

I suspect that Schumer is so caught up in the rhythm of business of Capitol Hill that he’s actually less well informed about what’s going on with constituents—and especially their reality based anxieties—than the OP is. Many of us spend an hour or more a day cruising the internet getting news and opinion from a wide variety of sources. I’m pretty sure Schumer doesn’t. I’d be surprised if he can even navigate Instagram or Tik-tok so it’s unlikely he’s ever experienced the hate and vitriol aimed at us libtards. Staffers may tell him or share the ccasional meme but is that enough?
