President Trump Wins Rare Praise From Top Democrat
By 1600 Staff
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) is not known for his support of President Trump. Yet on the momentous occasion of President Trump opening the embassy in Jerusalem, Israel, the top Democrat broke ranks to give the president credit for his achievement.
Big day for Israel. Congratulations!

“In a long overdue move, we have moved our embassy to Jerusalem,” Schumer said in a statement. Not missing an opportunity to claim credit, the Minority Leader also said “Every nation should have the right to choose its capital. I sponsored legislation to do this two decades ago, and I applaud President Trump for doing it.”
Thank you, President Trump, for having the courage to keep your promises. Thank you, President Trump for making the alliance between Israel and the United States stronger than ever @realDonaldTrump pic.twitter.com/GaG1NKptRz

The momentous event merited a rare display of bipartisanship in Washington, which has been divided on foreign and domestic policy. Sen. Schumer was one of the few Democrats opposed to the Iran Nuclear Deal, but struck out at the president’s decision last week to withdraw from the Obama era arrangement. Schumer’s desire to support on this occasion shows a clear victory for the President Trump, so much so that the shrewd Democratic leader wants to bask in its glory.

Schumer defines: hypocrisy, lying, fraud, and a host of other words that can not be mentioned.
Rare moment indeed! Now if you would keep on your big boy pants and help me Trump before your time expires, we could manage allot more!
Had to be painful to Schumer, to even come close to a “Congrats” !
Pshaw & harumph. He just doesn’t want us to see his true colors.
the dedication would have been more historic ,were it done ona day most appropriate,long-winded, as in 9/11!? was this a particularly JEWISH DAY for sum reason?? Christ ona Cross; dondi. plan this shit better. and thanks for sending ivanka!
Leave it to a Democrat to try to take credit for something he had nothing to do with .This guy is truly lost!
This is a very cunning, disingenuous, opportunistic man with no honest words in him! Don’t be tricked……
What drugs was Schumer on that day?
The Democrats have not had any glory since Trump took over, this idiot is trying to get a little bit of the Trump’s glory. Maybe thinking some of the glory might rub off on him …. Hehehehehe
AMERICA!! We ALL know, democrats are always thinking of ways to screw over Our President, from Snowflakes, Liberals, to the highest office democrats, seems all are in some kind of Mentally ill sickness!!
Think of how they … (Democrats) act …. from Hillary, Obama, McCain, liberals, Snowflakes, ALL …. show some mental health hatred, like they are on some kind of drug. On speeches they mumble, hesitate, stumble, like a bunch of zombies.
Perhaps Schumer is Jewish? If so, he has nothing to do but praise Trump…..
They see the writing on the wall: NeverTrump is NOT a winning strategy for Democrats. You will see more of this “softening,” they will stop shouting “impeach,” and they will try to look like they are willing to work together. But only the dumb will be fooled. The socialist/communists are trying to win over the “moderate” electorate.
Anyone think it might have something to do with the fact that Chucky is of the Jewish persuasion, and that his most powerful and active New York electorate is solidly behind Israel for the same reason? This issue is the only one that could get Chucky to laud Trump, which makes one wonder: “to which nation did Chucky swear allegiance?”
Maybe schumer is thinking about his reelection campaign and thinking he needs to throw a few bones the presidents way so his voters won’t really see him for the opposing scumbag he is
Jew first, obstructionist second!
Schumer is just trying to dig out of the hole he is in with his fellow fools who think the voters are stupid enough to believe. Cry baby schumer is part of the swamp rats president Trump will get rid of and put new water in the hole. Sorry Chukie it wont work.
He is using God to stay in Office do not buy it
I do respect Mr. Schumer for thanking the President for this gesture toward a national interest most Americans have.
You have to Love Trump.. Most Dems are changing..
