President Trump on Monday accused Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) of shedding “fake tears” over his ban on refugees and individuals from a certain Muslim-majority nations from entering the U.S.
Schumer teared up during a press conference on Sunday in New York while addressing the controversial policy. The president on Monday responded, “There’s a 5 percent chance they’re real.”
“I noticed Chuck Schumer yesterday with fake tears,” Trump said after meeting with small business leaders at the White House. “I’m going to ask him who is his acting coach.”
Schumer, standing alongside refugees, called on the Senate to vote on legislation blocking Trump’s order.
Choking back tears, Schumer called the order “mean-spirited and un-American.”
“These orders go against what America has always been about. The orders make us less humanitarian, less safe, less American,” Schumer said.
Asked via email for a reaction to Trump’s comments on Monday, Schumer spokesman Matt House wrote, “We’re not going to dignify that with a response.
Trump has known Schumer for decades, dating back to the president’s time as a real estate developer in New York City. The two men appeared chummy at a reception for congressional leaders last week at the White House.
But they have also traded insults.
Trump earlier this month called Schumer the “head clown” for defending the Affordable Care Act.
The Senate leader, in turn, has pledged to fight the new president’s agenda.
“On most areas, we’re going to have to fight him, and we’ll fight him tooth and nail,” he told NBC’s “Today” on Inauguration Day.

What a laugh,where was this Shumer chap’s tears over Obama’s drone wars and his arming of Al qeada and Isis ,which caused thousands of Muslim deaths,total hypocrisy by Zionists and the liberal elite snow flakes,Trump cares more about these catastrophes,which is why he stated that America will No longer impose western culture and democracy projects on the mid east..Shumer is another fake just like those fakes in Hollywood..
This is the end of the US, Israel is looking for the next host for its parasitic activities (China? India? ). Seems like the Netanyahu camp of Zionists will use Trump to make that push to eliminate what remains of Palestinians and push for a greater Israel project.
Thank God for Russia and Dr Assad. I really fear for Christians and Muslims in the US under Trump. He will tear down the country. Makes you wonder what deal he signed with the Zionist bankers when he almost got bankrupt.
