Chuck Schumer doesn’t think a little thing like impeachment should stand in the way of President Trump working with Democrats to hand them one of their most coveted legislative achievements.
“Amidst the impeachment inquiry the gears of government can still move,” Schumer said. “Anyone who suggests otherwise is advancing a false narrative.”
“In fact, the best example of governing for this president … would be to pass the universal background bill, which has been sitting on the door step of the Senate for well over 200 days.”
The New York Democrat chided Trump for meeting last week with NRA chief Wayne LaPierre, during which LaPierre reportedly told Trump to “stop the games” on gun legislation.
“How dare he and why would Trump take that from Wayne LaPierre,” Schumer said. “President Trump must do whatever it takes to resist the clouded comfort he craves from the likes of Wayne LaPierre and the NRA.”
