...it's LESS likely there will be calls for our """Establishment""" leaders to step down rather than MORE.

So, yeah, I'm not buying that excuse one bit.

Oh, and Sanders, when asked if Schumer should be replaced, responded with, "by whom?"

Can you answer him? And once you do, tell us how his replacement would have actually changed anything that people are criticizing Schumer for in the first place?
