Louisiana Senator John Kennedy stopped by Hannity Wednesday night to offer his analysis of the imploding Democratic Party’s efforts to oust Chuck Schumer.
Schumer fell out of favor with the extreme flank of his party after agreeing to support the CR government funding bill to prevent a shutdown.
“I don’t hate anybody — that includes Senator Schumer. He’s very smart. On the other hand, Chuck’s often wrong. He never makes the same mistake twice. He makes it five or six times just to be sure. But this time, he got it right in supporting our efforts to keep government open,” Kennedy said.
“Shutting the government down never achieves anything — it just scares people, especially the elderly,” Kennedy continued. “Having said that, many Democrats are angry at Schumer. Among them, right now, he’s about as popular as chlamydia.”
“But that, to me, says as much about the Democrat Party as much as it does about Senator Schumer. What it tells me is the loon wing of the Democratic Party is firmly in control. Now that’s great for the Republican Party but it’s bad for America. These people are deeply weird,” Kennedy added.
“Our Republican sectret plan for dealing with the Democrats is ‘Operation Let Them Speak,'” Kennedy quipped.
