Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has been protected by the media for so long that he’s gotten lazy in his shameless political activism.
A ranking member of the DC political class who honestly believe they are untouchable, Schumer was capitalizing on recent polling to take a shot at President Donald J. Trump — polling today is designed to shape public opinion, not reflect it — as part of an orchestrated campaign focused on the president’s first 100 days in office.
“The polls this week show Trump has the lowest 100-day approval rating since they started polling 80 years ago! The lowest!” Schumer said.
The problem for Schumer, who has been in Washington for 44 years and is a walking billboard for term limits, is that his polling is worse than Trump’s and the 74-year-old politician wanted to crawl under a rock when a reporter reminded him of that embarrassing fact, asking if he has become a liability to his party.
LMAO! A reporter just EMBARRASSED Chuck Schumer after Chuck claimed Trump’s poll numbers were bad
REPORTER: “There’s a poll out today that has your approval rating lower than any other Congressional leader at 17%…”
SCHUMER: “POLLS COME AND GO!”

“Polls come and go,” Schumer said, with a straight face. “Our party is united. We’re on our front foot, we’re stepping forward and going after Trump and having real success.”
There’s a reason intelligent, rational-minded Americans loathe Congress and have no trust whatsoever in the clowns being sent to D.C. every year to run this country, and Chuck Schumer is Exhibit A here.
Even CNN reported that the American people trust Trump more by a significant margin than Congress.
CNN’s Harry Enten shows that no matter what polls claim about President Trump’s approval, he’s still far more popular than whatever Democrats are floundering around doing. Every sane American knows this. pic.twitter.com/pBDsCB2hQx

Another factor not getting much attention is a study by the Media Research Center, which shows ABC, NBC and CBS slapped President Trump with 92% negative coverage leading up to the 100th day of his second term in office.
Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on the social media platform X:

Yes, polls come and go, Chuck. Just like your spine. One minute you’re smearing Trump, the next you’re polling somewhere between food poisoning and Congress itself.

So when it’s about President Trump, he holds a press conference to tell everyone about the polls, but the minute his poll numbers are mentioned, he immediately says polls ‘come and go’… NO SHAME from these people.

The second his poll numbers nosedive, suddenly polls don’t matter. But when it’s Trump? Oh, then it’s gospel. These clowns weaponize data when it fits the narrative and toss it in the shredder when it doesn’t.
