Trump Fires Back at Schumer Over Billion-Dollar Demand
You’ve got to admire the hustle. While most politicians are subtle about their pay-to-play games, Chuck Schumer just backed up a truck and demanded over a billion dollars in taxpayer funds to approve a handful of Trump’s Senate nominees.What was he holding hostage? Oh, just 150+ qualified Americans who went through the committee process with bipartisan support. But to Chuck? They’re bargaining chips.
Trump wasn’t having it. In classic MAGA fashion, he took to Truth Social, told Schumer to “GO TO HELL” (in all caps, naturally), and nuked the entire deal. No billion-dollar bribes. No budget-rigging games. Just one message: we’re not paying you to do your job.
Here’s what Schumer wanted: in exchange for greenlighting a few of Trump’s noncontroversial nominees, the White House had to unfreeze billions in NIH and foreign aid slush funds—and promise not to claw back any more. That’s right. Chuck wanted to lock in future spending to guarantee Democrat grift pipelines stayed open. [pagetraveler]
Schumer is playing crazy hardball by holding up the Trump nominees that passed out of Committee in order to make himself relevant as AOC wants his job.
