Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer defended his leadership stance during an appearance on CBS Mornings, countering suggestions from some Democratic colleagues for him to step down. In the wake of criticism regarding his support for a Republican-led continuing resolution, Schumer remained confident in his position, emphasizing his electoral success and collaborative efforts with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries to oppose Trump's agenda. Schumer believes that persistent resistance will weaken Trump's popularity and effectiveness over time, reiterating his commitment to leading the Democrats through current challenges.
"Here's what I'm saying. I'm the best leader for the Senate. When you don't have a president there's not one leader of the party, there are lots of them."
"If we keep at it every day, relentless fighting and showing how they're hurting people so badly, Trump's numbers will get much lower and his both popularity but also his effectiveness will decline."
