In one twenty-second video clip, Senator Chuck Schumer managed to blow up the carefully cultivated message from his fellow Democrats that they aren’t interested in pursuing impeachment proceedings against President Trump.
Speaking to a Brooklyn crowd on Monday, Schumer let slip with the accidental truth after a supporter asked, “When y’all gonna impeach Trump?”
Shockingly, Schumer responded not only in the affirmative but added he’d like to see it happen fairly soon.
“The sooner the better,” the New York Democrat can be heard saying. “We got to get a few Republicans. The Democrats are on your side.”
Chuck Schumer says we have to get a few Republicans out before we #ImpeachTrump. ↗️Their plan all along! 😱 VOTE 🗳 FOR OUR COUNTRY, OUR MAGA 4.6 GDP, & OUR JOBS. – @DailyCaller #RedNationRising #VoteRedToSaveAmerica #voteandpray #prayeveryday Do good & pray for God’s will. pic.twitter.com/DyroCyN8aG

Schumer likely thought he was having a quiet interaction with a supporter in which he could make such an off-the-cuff remark, but he forgot one thing – he shouted the admission into a freaking bullhorn!
His office was forced to engage in some serious backpedaling on the comments, claiming he simply misunderstood the question.
“After a number of questions along the parade route about the fate of the President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, the senator believed he was being asked, ‘When will you defeat Trump,’ and responded, ‘the sooner the better,’ noting that we need Republicans to defeat the nomination [of Kavanaugh],” a spokesman claimed.

That’s a stretch that even a world-renowned gymnast would admire.
The person in the crowd never mentions Brett Kavanaugh so any reference to the Supreme Court nomination would need to be completely made up in Schumer’s head. With that in mind, any generic reference to ‘defeating’ Trump rather than impeaching him would not require support from Republicans.
How much clearer can Democrats make the case that their control of Congress means a push to impeach @realDonaldTrump? Chuck Schumer on Impeaching Trump: ‘The Sooner the Better’ https://t.co/lUd9JpCMNx

Schumer’s confession goes against many of his colleagues who have downplayed impeachment talk.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi said the impeachment option was off the table adding, “I’m not going after it.”
Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) claims the process is “not politically viable” and it’s “too early in the process to be using these words,” while Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said there isn’t enough evidence.
At the same time, some Democrats have bucked the party line by freely admitting to their impeachment hopes and dreams.
Low-IQ Maxine Waters has been the most vocal of these lawmakers, screeching the phrase “Impeach 45!” at every waking moment.
Even at some people’s funerals.
Texas Democrat Al Green has also readily admitted that, should his party take back the House following the midterm elections, President Trump will be impeached.
He has actually tried introducing articles of impeachment on Trump in the past, only to be shot down in spectacular fashion.
And Congressmen Jamie Raskin (D-MD) and Steve Cohen (D-TN) have each called for impeachment.
Whose statements are more realistic – Schumer’s accidental truth, Maxine Waters and Al Green, or Democrats trying to downplay it?
A majority of American voters don’t support impeachment, which is why ranking Democrats are trying to keep quiet about their intentions.
But make no mistake, should Democrats regain control of Congress, this will be the first item on their agenda.

I am hoping Chuck Schumer keeps his position. He has ZERO credibility.
. A re-opening of an investigation into Blasio’s and Schumer’s Campaign Fund-Raising scandal is badly needed.
2.Schumer gave Anthony Weiner his start, first hiring him on his staff, then encouraging him to run for office and then endorsing Weiner in the race for Schumer’s seat when Schumer was running for the Senate in 1998.
3. After being denied a visa for entry into the United States last month, Tanveer Hussain knew just where to turn.The obliging offices of U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and fellow Democrat Senator Kirsten Gillibrand reached out to the embassy in New Delhi, India, and helped Hussain reapply for a visa to enter the U.S. to compete in the World Snowshoe Championship. Hussain is now charged with first-degree sexual abuse, a felony, and endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor, after Hussain was allegedly “engaging in a passionate kiss” with a 12-year-old girl and touched her in an “intimate area.”
4. Schumer himself has been accused Of Being A Pedophile. This investigation needs to be re-opened to ascertain the truth.
Is Sen. Chuck Schumer a Pedophile?
Numerous high level un-named sources have confirmed that N.Y. Senator Chuckles Schumer is a Rampant Pedophile.
“He loves little boys”, a source has been quoted as saying.
“A complete fan of Vienna Sausages”, another Insider has stated.
5. Did Chuck Schumer Say Judicial Nominees with ‘Deeply Held Christian Beliefs’ Are Unfit to Serve? Yes,he did. Don’t go by snopes as they are known left-wing scum liars.
6. ALBANY – Sen. Charles Schumer has accepted thousands of dollars in campaign donations from convicted criminals, The Post has found.
Only after told of the donations by The Post did the Schumer campaign say it would donate $17,000 in questionable contributions to charity.
Schumer received $10,000 from officials convicted in connection with an accounting scandal at Long Island-based Computer Associates, including $4,000 between 1999 and 2003 from Ira Zar, the company’s former chief financial officer, according to a review of the New York Democrat’s campaign-finance records.
Zar pleaded guilty in April to conspiracy, securities fraud and obstruction of a federal investigation into an accounting scandal at Computer Associates.
Schumer also received thousands of dollars from two other Computer Associates execs: David Kaplan, a former vice president of finance who pleaded guilty to obstruction and conspiracy to commit securities fraud, and Lloyd Silverstein, a former finance executive who pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice.
The incumbent senator also accepted $2,000 from George Lindemann Jr., who was convicted in 1996 of ordering the killing of a show horse in order to collect $250,000 in insurance money. In addition, Schumer accepted $4,000 from Solomon Weiss, a former Warner Communications executive convicted of taking bribes.
And he received $1,000 from disgraced former Court of Appeals Chief Justice Sol Wachtler, who was convicted of stalking his former mistress and threatening to kidnap her daughter.
Schumer is a total scum bag-he even makes Harry Reid look good! President Trump needs to take the gloves off and release all of the documentation that fully exposes all of these seditionists.
Chuck Schumer Asked About Impeachment:
‘The Sooner the Better’
THAT WAY WE CAN GET HILLARY IN THERE AND TAKE BACK OUR TRUE DEMOCRATIC CORRUPTION AGENDA AGAIN, ALONG WITH THIS AWESOME GET MORE ILLEGALS IN HERE SO WE DON’T HAVE TO FUK WITH THIS CHIT ANYMORE! “MORE ILLEGALS, MORE ILLEGALS”!!!!
Let’s call the Democrats what they really are TRAITORS to the Constitutional Republic. Let’s also uses the tactics that they used in the South against the blacks – Hang them High in the same manner as Benedict Arnold.
What will be the grounds for impeachment? That he has successfully implemented many of his campaign promises? As a voter, I become more incensed with these people who want to totally ignore that we legally voted for Pres. Trump!!! Schumer is an idiot who is still looking for his village!
THE SOONER THE BETTER. Let’s get Schumer impeached ASAP. And the rest of the swamp too.
Impeach Trump ? Okay, while we’re at it, how about Obama ? Who made the Munich Pact/Yalta Accord with Iran? Who sold the Uranium 1 Mine to Russia, which supplied about 20% of our uranium? Who gave Iran billions of dollars in gold, silver and multiple currencies, in ransom(?) by night in an attempt to do it secretly ? Granted, Obama is no longer in office so he can’t be impeached, but he is open to trial.
John – Art I, Sec 1 deals with the Legislative Powers being vested in the Congress of the U. S. How does your comment about “real identification” relate to Art 1, Sec 1?
Deplorable Lanie: Perhaps, when I vote this November, I’ll show my driver’s license and American passport to show I’m a legal voter. The problem with the federal “real identification” is that the U.S. Constitution prohibits it, therefore it can not possibly be legal (see article 1, section 1 as a start).
He has proved once again, that without a doubt Democrats do not care about American citizens or what is best for them. We must be aware in November that the only way the Democrats can win is if they are allowed to cheat. We must watch to make sure they are not busing in people who do not live in the area. We must make sure that all voters are alive and a real person. And that people only vote one time. And that they are citizens of this great country. Living here legally or illegally does not give you the right to vote. My hubby is a LEGAL IMMIGRANT and he is not allowed to vote. He knows if he wants to vote he must become a LEGAL citizen. We must be aware when there are more votes than people living in the district, and all the other little despicable tricks they will try to pull. If we want to keep our President, we MUST keep our majority in BOTH Houses!!!
WOW! Can’t get anything pass the press! (sarcasm)
Reminds me of the old saying that people in hell want ice water. I think the democrats can expect to be disappointed too. I want trump to show just how traitorous the democrats are to american values. Perhaps calif and new york can be democratic and the rest of the nation be republican and true americans.
The Dumbrat Party is run by: (you choose) 1. Morons 2. Idiots 3. Fools 4. Jackasses 5. Enemies. 6. Zombies.
I’m still waiting for Dims to explain what Trump has done that is an impeachable offense!! He has or is doing everything that he promised during his campaign. The crime that he IS SOOO GUILTY OF is actively working toward DRAINING the SWAMP!! Convict AND Sentence TRUMP to 4MORE years! MAGA!
Don’t count on the New Yorkers. To some of these, uh, dems, Chuckie is a moderate.
Schmuck Schumer – I can’t wait to see this turd flushed out of D.C. If the New Yorker’s won’t do it maybe God will.
WOW I’m surprised…Yeah right… Impeach on WHAT GROUNDS I would ask… Oh that’s right you don’t need grounds if your a dem….They are the evil that is destroying this once GREAT country and Donald is the Messiah to save it…. GOP needs a super majority in november….
Being Republican is not the only reason the scumbag democrats despise Trump, but also because their long accustomed ways of corruption is being threatened. They don’t want their homey comfy little swamp drained out.Just remember in November to vote RED!
AMEN to that! Just imagine if he actually had help implementing OUR agenda! He could actually build the wall. He could actually rebuild our failing infrastructure. He could actually fix our broken immigration system, to bring in the right people who love our country and want to be here. Wow – IMAGINE!
Except for one teeny-weeny thing – There are a whole big bunch of republicans in the swamp, too. Which is why President Trump can’t move any faster than he is. I felt, that when President Trump won the election, he would be fighting ALL of Washington. Some of the Repubs have been humiliated into cooperating, but they don’t want to see anything, but the status quo. He has made more progress than I ever dreamed he would. Imagine if he had the support of his party.
The deep state democrats are afraid of equality. They have been above the law , their crimes are coming to light. Schumer spews hate and insanity along with the rest of the democrats. They refuse to do their job, which is to negotiate with the rest of the elected body. Instead they and Obama called the republicans terrorist and refused to negotiate with them . They violated their oath of office by refusing to stop Obama’s crime wave.
.
THE REASON ALL THESE DEMS AND OTHERS ARE SO OUTSPOKEN AGAINST TRUMP IS BECAUSE HE KNOWS THEIR CRIMES AND THESE CORRUPT DEMS AND LEFTISTS ARE AFRAID FOR THE FIRST TIME THEIR CRIMES WILL BE EXPOSED AND THEY WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE…WHO DO THEY THINK THEY ARE KIDDING….THE GREAT AWAKENING IS IN FULL SWING AND THERE IS NO STOPPING IT….GO POTUS…DRAIN THAT FILTHY PEDO INFESTED SWAMP! LOCK THE WITCH AND ALL HER LITTLE DEMONS UP….JUST WAIT TILL THE WORLD LEARNS THE FULL TRUTH OF WHAT THEY HAVE DONE TO THE CHILDREN OF THIS PLANET
