Schumer , amid controversy, is scheduled  to appear on  Colbert next Thursday to plug a new book. Chuck has become useless.

All politicians are useless.

That's not far from the truth. "Best politician" is not necessarily a good thing, either.  The two "best politicians" in my lifetime have been Bill Clinton and Mitch McConnell, and both are scoundrels in their own way. Both were saavy political animals in their prime . The best of the best(or worst of the worst, ever how you want to view it). Both lost their mojo, somewhat, later on in life.  Mitch told friends here in Corbin on his last visit to the big house on the hill  that his biggest political regret is not finishing off Trump when he had the chance. He hates Trump with the ferocity of a thousand lions, from what I hear.
