    Fuck you, Schumer, and fuck you, Durbin. You fucking pansy-ass kumbayah limp dick pieces of shit. The GOP brings a colt .45 to the poker match, and you bring a handkerchief. You absolute unmitigated fucking tools. A sea cucumber has more of a spine than you imbecilic self-defeating fucks. You refuse to use even the most basic precepts of game theory, and then are surprised by the results. Jesus tapdancing christ.
