Michelle Obama to Anderson Cooper: “Leaders hang on too long, because they have nowhere to go with honor. Real leaders make room for the next group to come up.”

Not defending Shumer at all there was messaging that will spin to our favor

Instead they put these boobs on Fox
1: were forcing DT to feed americans since he went to SCOTUS to refuse to
2: were forcing a vote on Epstein cause victims/americans deserve truth
3: forcing their hand on alt to ACA

etc
