1. Exigencias de Remoción y Falta de Carácter.
Una gran parte de la conversación se centra en la necesidad de reemplazar a Chuck Schumer, a quien se describe como un líder cobarde e ineficaz que sistemáticamente cede ante las demandas republicanas, incluso cuando el Partido Demócrata tiene ventaja política.
- Schumer must go, period. He does this every time democrats are winning a fight. Hes an old cowardly man.
- Schumer is a failure as a leader, incapable of reading the room reflecting the outrage, horror urgency felt by his base. He must stop down.
- Time for the senators to do a solid for the american people and fire chuck schumer from leadership. You have the power!
2. La Capitulación y el Desperdicio de Poder.
La principal crítica a Schumer y a los senadores demócratas que votaron a favor de la reapertura del gobierno es que desperdiciaron la influencia política ganada, entregando la victoria a los republicanos sin obtener concesiones significativas, lo que se percibe como una traición a los votantes.
- Im sick of holding the power over republicans and then schumer just hands them the win so we look bad. Cowards.
- This is an epic betrayal of all the dem voters who came out across the country to power victories this week.
- Chuck schumer gets blamed by republicans for the shutdown chuck schumer hated by democrats for caving and abdicating legislative power to republicans he should simply resign and let someone more intelligent and more aligned with dems take over.
3. Fuentes de Poder y Resistencia al Cambio.
Se debate si Schumer realmente tiene el poder de controlar a su caucus o si su posición se mantiene gracias a su control sobre los fondos de campaña y su disposición a proteger a los senadores. Algunos argumentan que su poder es limitado, mientras que otros lo acusan de aferrarse al cargo por motivos egoístas.
- Schumers source of power is his lobbyist war chest. His caucus might forfeit schumers funding if they cross him.
- Schumer is power-mad. He doesnt care if democrats lose future elections. He just wants to keep his seat at all costs.
- Regarding the democratic cave on the shutdown, the chief problem i have with the criticism about schumer is the assumption that he controls the senate dems. He does not. The minority leader has only a little power within hisher caucus and virtually no power in the senate itself.
