    I don’t think replacing Shumer would change anything. What actions did he take that weren’t fully supported by the majority of the party? His replacement would likely be Corey Booker, Amy Klobuchar, or someone similar.

      So Americans should just give up and not expect demand better from their elected representatives?

        Demand better from the elected representatives who actually have the power to make changes - the Republicans!

            Absolutely. We always need to keep pressure on them to be better because the people who want everything to be worse sure as hell do.
