I don’t give half a damn. Judges die to do their job. Politicians die to do their job. If you’re such a coward you can’t risk your life for your country then you can fucking retire or go be a divorce lawyer.
Just because America used to be safe for such jobs doesn’t mean the base reality didn’t hold. These jobs require the courage to risk your life. Otherwise you just risk other people’s
Damn… that hadnt crossed my mind. I get Schumer, fuck him still, but i kinda get it.
I’d also add the fact that his donors might have not liked the idea of a government shutdown causing further turbulence to the stock market.
