Does Chuckles Schumer Deserve a Warmbier?

News flash, the senior senator from New York, and Senate Minority Leader,  Charles “Chuckles” Schumer (D – NY [1]) is a liar.

But first, from Daily Caller [2]:

The University of Delaware has sacked Katherine Dettwyler, the taxpayer-funded professor who declared that Otto Warmbier was a “spoiled,” “white, rich, clueless” American college student who “got exactly what he deserved” when he recently ended up comatose and then died at the age of 22 after serving part of a lengthy prison sentence in North Korea.

Now granted the late Otto Warmbier was a naive petty criminal. Further, grant that former Professor Katherine Dettwyler was only referring to Warmblier imprisonment, a fifteen year at hard labor, and not to his probable murder by North Korea. how does anybody deserve fifteen years for stealing a poster? Professor Dettwyler, have you no shame?

The late Mr. Warmbier it can be argued tried to undermine the unelected government of North Korea.    Meanwhile back in the swamp, a/k/a Washington D.C.  Senator Chuckles  tried to undermine the duly elected President of the United States, from Byron York, Washington Examiner [3]:

Fast forward to March. The Russia controversy had grown, not diminished. On March 9, [James] Comey briefed the so-called Gang of Eight — Mitch McConnell, Schumer, Paul Ryan and Nancy Pelosi, plus the chair and ranking member of both House and Senate intelligence committees. On March 15, Comey briefed Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Grassley and top committee Democrat Dianne Feinstein. Comey told them all that Trump was not under investigation.

[…]

But then the next day, March 21, Schumer, who had been briefed by Comey on March 9 that the president was not under investigation, took to the floor of the Senate. He called on lawmakers to delay the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch until the Russia matter was resolved. Republicans held up former President Barack Obama’s court choice for nearly a year, Schumer said, but “are now rushing to fill the seat for a president whose campaign is under investigation by the FBI.”

Schumer appeared to be speaking carefully; he said Trump’s campaign was under investigation. But then he became much less careful with his words. “You can bet if the shoe were on the other foot and a Democratic president was under investigation by the FBI, the Republicans would be howling at the moon about filling a Supreme Court seat in such circumstances,” Schumer said.

So by Professor Dettwyler logic, such as it is, what fate should befall Senator Chuckles?
