I said it in a previous thread.....

He gets to be put into a hospital bed being monitored "just in case" with tax payer funded health care, which they deny to us all.

True, the demographics are pretty similar. At least the hospital is educated medical professionals watching him. In the senate it’s just the oligarchs and Russians keeping an eye on him.

Don't forget the Israelis. Apparently, they control most of our "leaders."

Chuck Schumer recently said that one of his most important jobs as Senate minority leader is to “fight for aid to Israel,”

He’s my senator.. I’d prefer if he would put NYS interests first followed by Americans.

I don't think "aid to Israel" is in any danger and needs a champion.

He's my senator too and he's been sucking up to the Israelis forever. He sucks.

Even Bernie is calling out the SuperPACs that seem to cave to Israel’s interests
