In response to President Trump dispatching federal officers to the streets of DC, Sen. Chuck Schumer stated, “I feel perfectly safe” strolling across the US Capitol grounds and neighborhood.
Of course, he forgot to say that he has 24-hour taxpayer-funded security and the use of a car. I guess his youthful staffers who don’t take pleasure in around-the-clock security might whisper that they don’t share their boss’ view.
