IMO, AOC takin’ on Schumer would be a game-changer, dude. Dude’s been in office since before I was even born, LOL. It’s high time for fresh energy, bold ideas, y’know? So yeah, I’m all for that disruption.

What’s one good thing Schumer has done this year?

Honestly… she’s been mostly consistent in her stances AND she’s under 60. Low bar, but here we are.

Would she have to give up her seat in the house to run for senate?

Yes, please.

If I were a NY resident, at this point I would nominate my old Halloween pumpkin to replace Schumer. Even by the time we get to 2028 it would *still* be a preferable choice.

Schumer should be begging her to run for POTUS then

Chuck Schumer [follows the orders of two imaginary GOP voters, Joe and Eileen Bailey](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dijMKwZMU2Q). No I am not making this up, Yes this is real.

She has matured a lot and is one of the clearest strong voices the Dems have

Please do this. For the love of the made up sky father. Please.

AOC needs a bigger soapbox. I think she should go for it.

It might be an eye-opening experience for AOC to try to win a statewide election rather than just the 14th Congressional District.
If you’re running for state office, you’re going to have to appeal to a wider range of more diverse voters across the whole state, even in a solid Blue state like NY.

Schumer has been a has been for 12 years riding the coat tails of whoever’s a$$ he could kiss the quietest and still not end up with stink breath. He keeps exposing himself as the weakest leader ever and HE is personally holding the Democratic Party back

Get the Zionists and Israel supporter out of government. This is a great start.

Schumer is 75 and been a senator for 26 years; if he had any grace he would stand down. Unfortunately Biden and Pelosi have not been good examples for Democrats and they now need to bring in the next generation of politicians

I’d prefer her there than some dumb white house bid.
Where’s the next ‘Master of the Senate’. After seeing what McConnell was able to do to this country, I’d prefer her there wielding similar but opposing power..

I’m fine with this, but it’s also not the position I want her to run for in 2028.

YES. Get him the fuck out

I’ve seen some AOC for president posts, amd honestly I don’t hate that, I’d vote for her. I’m not convinced she’d win that race though… sure are a lot of racists and misogynists in this country.
Taking Shumer’s senate spot seems like a obvious move. I can’t see her losing that race*.
*I am not a political expert. Far from it, in fact.

She should be Speaker.Then take a run for Prez next time.
TheHoundsRevenge on
Look I agree with a lot of her positions. Not all of them but I just don’t see her being able to make deals on a national level.

Our politics needs a clean up of foreign money, interests and big donors. Schumer is all of those things. Bloated by the same donors and interests of the gop.

I don’t know, to me she seems wasted in that role. She would have to make compromises on several stances, to bring heads together.
Her strongest point instead is the ability to speak strong and clear, and put her positions forward no matter how radical they may look like in the current political environment. If you lose AOC in that role, you basically have no one effective enough to replace her.
JoshuasOnReddit on
Tbh, I’d vote for her to be president.
WHSRWizard on
She’ll win, and win big
Brysynner on
My guess is Schumer announces his retirement after the 2026 midterms. AOC might have an uphill battle to be the junior Senator from New York. She’ll need to not be toxic to the centrist/conservative areas of the state to win an open primary.

If there’s a Ocasio & Newsom electoral ticket, I believe it would be a blessing for the people, for ordinary American citizens.
