They are just parroting the mainstream media, which we all know is now owned by billionaires. Why accept that framing?
I would say -

Really? Because I don't think Schumer is the problem. Democrats have very little power right now, and that includes Schumer. We have a Republican Congress, Republican supporting Supreme Court, and a Republican in the Presidency. Republicans have strong leverage as the majority party - why are you blaming the minority party? Put the blame where it belongs - on the party in charge.
