'We voted for our candidate': Dem voters rage over Chuck Schumer's bid to push Biden out

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) privately implored President Joe Biden to end his re-election campaign in a private meeting at his home in Delaware, according to new reporting from ABC News chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl. When asked for comment, Schumer's office released a non-denial statement, saying only, "Leader Schumer conveyed the views of his caucus" and that any other reporting on what they discussed was "speculation."

But it appears that a large portion of Democratic commenters on social media are getting sick of the intraparty attacks on Biden by their own elected officials — and many took to X to rage against this state of affairs.

"So that was Saturday, and obviously Biden told Schumer to stuff it - this is news on Wednesday why?" wrote the account @sueplick.

"I don’t care. I voted in the primary. He’s my guy," wrote the account @NMDeSimon.

"Democrats are sabotaging any, and every chance we have to beat trump," wrote the account @DeereDeere. "Democrats are not listening to the majority of voters. They are buying into Republican rhetoric. I have never been more disappointed in Democrats. Democrats do not get to dismiss my primary vote for Biden."

"Tough s---. We voted for our candidate," wrote the account @Meltart.

"So coup #2 is in full force," wrote the account @MrDirt66.

"Schumer is a weak leader to just relay concerns from his caucus," wrote the account @AC_Californian. "He could say, 'look, Tester and Brown are going to say you should step down because they have a really tough race, but you and I know there’s no other person who could do better than you, so you have my support.'"

"Given that Biden has made multiple appearances since this one-on-one confirming his candidacy, what's the point of this reporting?" wrote the account @anches. "Other than to demonstrate Schumer's cowardice for not being direct with the American people."

"Annnndddd then yesterday he defiantly said he wasn’t going anywhere," wrote the account @beachmamax2 Wednesday. "But this explains the line about friends in Washington" — a reference to Biden's speech shortly after his reported meeting with Schumer, in which he said he now understands former President Harry Truman's old quote, "If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog."
