21. Schumer should demand a vote NOW. Why wait? Get the show on the road!

May 2021

Push the GOP into their wheelhouse: whatever Trump says.

Let them do it quickly so they can't think strategically. They haven't done so in over five years, why stop now?

Trump is a crazed dunderhead. Let the GOP follow him in every conceivable way. Then when Trumpy-Boy gets indicted and convicted, the GOP can follow him to his prison cell for more words of wisdom.

Giving the GOP until next week allows them a few days to re-group and consider their medium and long-term well-being. Don't let them, Chuck. Drive it home before Saturday.
