Charles Schumer is a phony, and bad for both the Jewish community and women
Here is the most important fact about Sen. Chuck Schumer and antisemitism: When President Barack Obama forced the Iran nuclear deal on America, Schumer opposed it but did not whip his caucus against it.It's also vital to recall that Schumer even supported allowing men into women's bathrooms 3 years ago. That sure is some "responsible" politician there. Just what does Schumer think he's going to accomplish, when what he's supported could endanger Jewish women and children as well? Matt Margolis notes that Schumer admitted antisemitism is coming foremost from the left today. But that's still not enough to convince he's dedicated to preventing bad news, and no sensible person should associate with him. Schumer's refusal to attend the embassy opening in Jerusalem was a disgrace, and his willingness to jeopardize women is another grave minus.
When the deal came up for review in the Senate, Schumer’s party filibustered the vote and prevented Congress from blocking it. The deal gave Iran access to some $100 billion in assets, plus billions of dollars in a side deal as ransom for Americans held in Iran. That money funded terror and Hamas.
At the time, Schumer made a wonderful statement about how terrible the Iran deal was. I even thought that it might be a “game-changer.”
More experienced observers of the future Senate Majority Leader told me to watch his actions, and not his words.
They were right.
A few years later, Schumer — like every other elected Democrat — refused to attend the opening of the U.S. embassy in Jerusalem and declined to attend the party thrown by the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC, to celebrate the event.
The reason? Schumer and the Democrats did not want to give President Donald Trump credit. They put partisan gain ahead of what was good for America and the U.S.-Israel alliance.
So it is with Schumer’s speech on antisemitism in the Senate Wednesday.
