Vice President JD Vance on Thursday employed one of Trump’s nicknames for Chuck Schumer during his remarks at a White House Cabinet meeting, referring to Chuck Schumer as “one of the most famous Palestinians in the world” and crediting President Trump with knowing the New York Senator for a long time as one reason he was able to end the war in Gaza.
President Trump, in recent months, has referred to America’s highest-ranking Jewish lawmaker multiple times as “Our Great Palestinian Senator” when discussing the conflict between Israel and Hamas.
Oddly enough, Schumer, much like George Soros, sympathizes with the radically anti-Israel wing of the Democratic Party and has even shown support for radical communist and jihadist New York Mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani.
Vance congratulated Trump and others on the team for negotiating a hostage release and Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza on Thursday, commending the President for his “different course” to solve the conflict and his ties to many powerful individuals who want to see the war end.
This includes his relationship with “one of the most famous Palestinians in the world, Chuck Schumer,” Vance said before tearing into Schumer for shutting down the government to push his radical open borders agenda.
WATCH:
Mr. President, first of all, congratulations on yesterday, it was a big day, to Marco, to Susie, to the entire team. But in particular, viewing it from this perspective, where for months, the fake news media attacked you, attacked the entire team, attacked your approach, you know, the definition of insanity is to do the same thing again and again, expecting a different result. The reason we’re here is because the President actually chartered a different course with a different team. He vested a lot of authority into Steve Witkoff in particular, and that’s why we’re here. It’s because you did something different. And I think it’s important to recognize that.
I also think the President, you know, Marco mentioned the President’s personal touch being a big part of this. The one thing I would say is, obviously the President United States, a New York real estate billionaire, one of the most famous New Yorkers in the world, has a lot of interaction with a lot of people who are very pro-Israel. I think that was an important set of experiences and life experiences that he brought to the table. He also, of course, knew one of the most famous Palestinians in the world, Chuck Schumer. And I think without that background of knowledge, it would have been impossible to get us to this.
The second thing I want to say, just on Chuck Schumer, the President mentioned this that Chuck Schumer said, “this has been very good for us,” this morning about the shutdown. One of the things that we talked about before all the media came in and that all of us are going to work on for the rest of the day and we’ve been working on for days is how to make the shutdown as painless as possible on the American people. So, while Chuck Schumer brags about this being good, and I think the President is right, it’s not good for him politically, as much as he might think that it is. It’s causing real consequences for the American people.
There’s a low income food program, the WIC program that my mom actually used when I was a baby. That program is about to be underfunded, and it’s about to get cut off because Chuck Schumer won’t open the government. We have troops. The Secretary of War mentioned how well we’re doing on recruitment. We’re trying to figure out how to pay our troops because Chuck Schumer is shutting down the US government. There are veterans benefits that are going to suffer, there are Americans that are going to suffer because Chuck Schumer refuses to do his job. So, while we’re all celebrating this incredible success that we’ve had on the world stage, the country could be doing so much better if Chuck Schumer did his job and opened the government. Every single Republican, except for Rand Paul, has voted to open the government. A few moderate Democrats, to their credit, have voted with us to open the government. We just need five more Democrats to come to their senses and let the People’s Government serve the American people. I hope that they’ll do that.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump announced on Wednesday night that Israel and Hamas have signed off on phase one of a peace deal.
“Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace,” and “all hostages will be released “very soon,” Trump said on Truth Social last night. There are reportedly 20 living hostages in Hamas custody.
During the cabinet meeting earlier, Trump said that he plans to travel to Egypt to officially sign the agreement, adding, “I think it’s going to be a lasting peace, hopefully an everlasting peace.”
