The most powerful Democrat in the U.S. Senate, Chuck Schumer of New York, screamed at a high-profile Trump supporter in a Manhattan restaurant, according to sources.
While dining at the upscale Upper East Side restaurant Sette Mezzo, Schumer ran into Joseph A. Califano, Jr. and his wife, Hilary, who were enjoying dinner at another table.
The Califanos are a high-profile couple in New York society: Joe Califano had served as Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare under President Jimmy Carter, and had also served as an adviser to President Lyndon B. Johnson. Hilary Califano is a New York socialite, the daughter of late CBS founder and chairman William S. Paley, Jr.
However, despite her husband being a high-profile Democrat, Hilary Califano is a lifelong Republican. And she voted the party line in 2016: for President Donald Trump.
For some reason, Schumer felt enraged and betrayed by Hilary Califano’s vote—and attempted to verbally humiliate and harass them in the luxurious Manhattan eatery.
A witness explained that, “[The Califanos] are a highly respected couple, and Schumer made a scene, yelling, ‘She voted for Trump!’ The Califanos left the restaurant, but Schumer followed them outside.”
The witness added that Schumer continued to scream at the couple, even as they hustled away from the restaurant—apparently shouting, “How could you vote for Trump? He’s a liar!” He continued to scream, “He’s a liar,” repeatedly after the couple.
Hilary Califano confirmed the shocking exchange to the New York Post’s Page Six gossip column.
“Sen. Schumer was really rude,” she told the Post. “He’s our senator, and I don’t really like him. Yes, I voted for Trump. Schumer joined us outside and he told me Trump was a liar.”
She added: “I should have told him that Hillary Clinton was a liar, but I was so surprised I didn’t say anything.”
Despite both fellow diners and Hilary Califano confirming Schumer’s appalling behavior, Schumer’s office denies that anything out-of-the-ordinary happened: “Schumer and his wife ate at the café on Sunday, engaging in unremarkable conversation with patrons who approached their table. There were no heated exchanges with anyone.”
However, Schumer’s office has denied any allegations that the senator engaged in a confrontation at the restaurant.
“There were no heated exchanges with anyone,” a Schumer spokesperson told the Post. “[He] and his wife ate at the café on Sunday, engaging in unremarkable conversation with patrons who approached their table.”
i would like to meet cry baby chuckie myself
oh are you going to meet him like Joe or DeZero want to meet Trump? Sell tickets
Nothing to see here, never mind the man behind the curtain. “Trump is the liar” says the people behind the curtain – Schiff, Schumer, Nadler, Pelosi, AOC, Tlaib, Omar, and a cast of thousands.
Schumer was, he did not do anything out of the ordinary for him.He is one of the biggest hipocrits in the world. Although he is competing with most DemoCraps.
I would love for Upchuck to try that with my wife & I…..I’d make him swing first, then clean his clock and make sure his teeth were left on the ground…..a phony clear through, only would do that to a woman and elderly to boot!
This should prove that ALL the DumboRATS are liars –can’t even accept his own beahvior when I am sure there were several there to witness this–same as him standing on the steps of the Supreme Court and calling Judge Roberts a liar. It is past time to retire Schumer and take your krony friends with you.
Chuckle is a drunken crooked no good SOB
Amen
What a disgusting excuse for a human being. I’ll bet someone has a video of the whole thing and I would love for them to come forward and nail this ugly man to the wall. One day he is gong to pick on the wrong person (s) and it just might go badly for this nasty excuse for a human.
That would be so wonderful. I would want to be there with bells on.
So Schumer denied something stupid that he did in public, and he calls Trump a liar?
I would love to be screamed at by this POS. he would never scream at anyone again.
Schumer’s a jackass and a total scumbag…….he might try that once with me and after that he wouldn’t be able to open that piehole any more because he would be in a neck cast from the nose down!!! And to think there are complete MORONS (his constituents) who think he’s the greatest thing ever which tells you everything you need to know about them……..they are f’ing IMBECILS!!!
They made a movie about Chuck and Nancy…….it was called Dumb and Dumber!! I would pay good money to watch them collapse and die right in the middle of the senate and House floor nationally televised in front of millions of Americans……the only obvious problem with that scenario is who would the DEMONCRATS nominate to fill their positions, Adam “The Lying Scumbag” Schift or “AOC and The Squaler Squad”?? Either way it wouldn’t be an improvement up and until the House falls beck into the hands of the Republicans and then the American people could at the very least breath a little knowing the president Harris (seeing how Joe won’t make it 3 months until he is removed or drops over dead and that pathetic, laughs like the Joker (because she’s a lying loser) disaster of a human being would take over the presidency and she’ll waste little time implementing her SOCIALIST AGENDA!!!
Listen you little PRICK you ever tried that with my wife your big nose would be an inny not an Outty… I look forward to the day you would pull that shit on me. It will be your funeral.. SCUMBAG!
TRAITOR SCUM!
There is a special place for you in Hell and the rests of you heathens in the Swamp.
BURN BABY BURN!
SWINE!
