Schumer Says Trump Could Drop JD Vance from the Ticket

Pam Key 28 Jul 2024

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that former President Donald Trump picking Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) as his running mate was “the best things he ever did for Democrats.”

According to the New York Democrat, Trump could drop Vance from the GOP ticket.

Partial transcript as follows:

    COSTA: Vice President Harris, now the presumptive nominee. Senator, are you encouraging Senate Democrats, including those in battleground states, to invite her to campaign with them to have her in their advertisements?

    SCHUMER: Yeah, the Biden-Harris record is just incredible, as I mentioned, all the specific things that has been- that they have passed together working with us. So it’s an incredible record, and our senators are already talking about it. They’re, you know, cutting ribbons and new bridges, they’re bringing rural broadband, they’re bringing broadband to rural areas, they’re opening up new factories from chip fabs. So it’s a great, great record, and it’s helping our Senate candidates run on it. And let me just say one thing, just compare that to the Republican record to the Trump-Vance ticket. It’s extreme, this Project 2025 shows that would take the rights away from women. It would take away rights of working people and help only the very wealthy, it would even be a threat to our democracy. And one more point about this, and that is the addition of JD Vance to this ticket. It’s- it’s incredibly a bad choice. I think Donald Trump, I know him, and he’s probably sitting and watching the TV, and every day, Vance, it comes out Vance has done something more extreme, more weird, more erratic. Vance seems to be more erratic and more extreme than President Trump. And I’ll bet President Trump is sitting there scratching his head and wondering, why did I pick this guy? The choice may be one of the best things he ever did for Democrats.

    COSTA: What do you mean–

    SEN. SCHUMER: –Now the President has about 10 days- 10 days before the Ohio ballot is locked in. And he has a choice: Does he keep Vance on the ticket, where he’s- he probably- he’s- he already has a whole lot of baggage, he’s probably going to be more baggage over the weeks because we’ll hear more things about him, or does he pick someone new? What’s his choice?

Afraid of Vance?  Chuckie must have gotten the memo that there are some amongst the GOP voters that think Vance was a terrible pick and he's just playing on that sentiment. I include Chuckie as one of the evil ones.

What does Chuckie think will happen. Obama J.D. like he did with Biden?    Even a superman like Burack doesn't have that much power!

So Chuck, Step off you gassbag.

Trump has done a lot of things to help Democrats.  But it is hard to gauge this one as the best.  Very helpful, yes.  But there are a lot of other things Trump has done that have helped Democrats more.  Funding all their 2020 and 2022 campaign coffers with free Covid money would definitely rank near the top.

Hardly.  They are thrilled with the new inexperienced Ohio Senator.   Trump had a unique opportunity to secure one of the battleground States with his VP nominee.  And he blew it.  And if Trump somehow wins, then the Dems will get a RINO Senator in place of Vance.  It's a win-win for them.  Schumer is simply rubbing it in.  He knows damn well that Trump would never admit making a mistake.

I'm still hoping that this country even sees an election in November.  There's too much of an under current in our country along with all the wokeness in our own military, uneasiness in the middle east, Ukraine, Russia, China, Taiwan, N. Korea, etc.

...then there's the depiction of "The Last Supper" at the Olympics ..... and we expect the world just to continue on????? Really????

No.  Everything is definitely NOT ok!

Chuck Schumer goes on another unhinged rant against the Supreme Court for levying decisions he doesn't like, smearing the Court as an "ethical morass" that "threatens democracy"

Just get it over with.  Set fire to the Reichstag already.

Serious question: how is he inexperienced? At what? I'm trying to understand what critics mean by inexperienced.

On the other hand, did it benefit the U.S. that the current president had some 36 years' "experience" in the U.S. Senate - and none in the private sector - before becoming VP?

Has anyone ever followed up with these halfwit progressives whenever they ranted about democracy?  How does the immunity decision threaten democracy, Chuck?  You lazy eyed gasbag.

I think that in this context, they mean "inexperienced politically", but I absolutely agree with your underlying point.  Being politically experienced helps you get elected and stay elected.  But it's not the kind of experience that gives you knowledge regarding the real world impact of the government policies they are so experienced at enacting.

Vance will be getting a steady diet of this for the next 3 months-4 years (depending...).  I think he's up to it.

@mountaineer

By 'inexperienced', I am referring to political experience.  He's been in political office for less than two years and has a lot to learn to navigate the nuances of a hostile press and the opposition party they work for.  There may be quite a few foot-in-mouth incidents over the next few months.

As for Biden, he has plenty of political experience.  But that doesn't translate into his effectiveness as a government executive.  We'll have to wait and see how well Vance does in the VP role.  I hope he does well, and I hope he abandons his philosophy that the power of government should be used to help people.

In the mean time, he has a giant target on him by people with decades of political experience who are looking for easy pickings.
