Fresh off defending a Hamas supporter, Sen. Chuck Schumer spoke to the New York Times to promote his book about antisemitism.

Topping that howler, Schumer claimed that the Democrats are authentic. “We are the party of working people. We feel that very, very strongly. That’s who we have always been.”

Sen. Schumer is a millionaire Harvard grad. After graduating from Harvard, he went into politics. His party’s last presidential graduate spent her entire life in politics. Pretty much the case for the party’s past nominees who spent their entire lives in politics. That’s one definition of “working people”, but not one that actual working people have.

Schumer blathers about billionaires, but that’s who funds his party. The Democrats are a party of political ideologues who work for billionaires and then claim to be ‘working class’. And that’s politics for you.
