Schumer: I'm Meeting with McConnell to Push for Ditching ‘MAGA Republicans'
[Breitbart] Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Monday on CNN’s "This Morning" that he was meeting with Senat Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) in the wake of midterm election results to convince Republican senators to ditch so-called "MAGA Republicans."

Co-host Kaitlan Collins said, "Are you going to talk to Mitch McConnell? What does that look like?"

Schumer said, "I’m going to say to the Republicans in the Senate who are not the MAGA Republicans, stop letting them lead your party. Work with us to get things done. I intend to sit down with Mitch McConnell and express that."

He continued, "I intend to sit down with him and say we should be working together. You’re not going to get the extremists in your party to work with anybody, but the rest of us can work together and get some real things done for the American people."

Co-host Don Lemon asked, "I’m wondering what is different? What is going to be different this time with the MAGA Republicans? You said that before. Please work with us. Why is it different this time?"

Schumer said, "It’s different this time because they lost. The red wave proved to be a red mirage. And one, not the main reason but one of the main reasons for sure, was that average American folks, even those in the middle, even those who tended to be Republican, said, ’I’m afraid of this MAGA. They’re trying to ruin our democracy.’ If you look at the numbers, if you look at the results of the House and Senate, the MAGA Republican way didn’t work. The MAGA Republican candidate, across the board, lost. If you’re a good leader of a Republican Party, you say continuing to follow them is a path to disaster."

#4 Work with us to get things done

Like the last two years? Like Obamacare and other measures you rammed thru without any Pub support?

Eat $h1t, Chuck, three meals a day, and live forever.

#6 I was trying to tally the likely composition of the remains 7% of the American electorate who still have a positive perception of Minority Mitch. I had RINOs, CCP operatives and metal hospital patients. Looks like I can add in Chuck Schumer assuming he doesn’t Venn Diagram himself into one or more of the other groups.

#7 Our political system has devolved into a collection of committees that insulate themselves from the electorate.

It has to change and they are arrogantly signaling that it will not change at the ballot box.

#8 It's not going to change until a crap ton of upheaval gets the ball rolling. The ballot box lies in ashes right in front of us as we shuffle about wondering where our COLA went.

#9 The uniparty. They're united against us. Whether D or R, they serve nothing but power. Their own power.

They hate us all.

#10 I’m afraid of this MAGA. They’re trying to ruin our democracy.’

Because God forbid anyone even dream of making America great. All that's important is our brand of democracy.

#11 The votes for 2022 aren't even counted yet and they are advertising for 2024.

Not weird at all.

#12 I've always loath Chuck. He's the smug smarmy politician you roll up the newspaper and swap him on the nose.
Just own up and call for gulags and killing fields. That show those deplorables to never again interfere in his democracy!

#13 Time to give everything from the southern border of NY to Canada. Give CA, NV, AZ, NM back to Mexico. Give Oreington to Hongcouver.

Move on.

#14 ^ That's my view, and will be strategically redeploying accordingly. The states are no longer united. Choose wisely, and entrench.
