WATCH: Chuck Schumer Tells Biden State ‘Going Downhill’ for Democrats on Hot Mic

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) was caught Thursday on a hot mic telling President Joe Biden that Democrats are “going downhill” in Georgia and expressing disbelief that Republican Herschel Walker might win the Senate race.

“The state where we’re going downhill is Georgia,” he told Biden. “It’s hard to believe that they will go for Herschel Walker.”

More footage of the hot mic moment showed Schumer expressing concern over the Democrats’ chances. “We’re in danger in that seat,” Schumer told the president in Syracuse, New York. It’s unclear which seat he is referring to, however.

The majority leader additionally mentioned Pennsylvania Lt. Gov. John Fetterman’s highly scrutinized debate performance against Dr. Mehmet Oz on Tuesday evening.

He told Biden that “the debate didn’t hurt us too much in Pennsylvania. So that’s good.” (Read more from “WATCH: Chuck Schumer Tells Biden State ‘Going Downhill’ for Democrats on Hot Mic” HERE)

Schumer Admits Trump, Not Roberts, Was Right About Judges

On Friday, Senate Minority Leader hilariously and unwittingly confirmed that in his opinion, his arch-nemesis, President Trump, was right and Chief Justice John Roberts was wrong when Trump stated that judges on the Supreme Court held partisan views that colored their judgment and Roberts vehemently disagreed. Schumer issued a tweet in which he admitted that Roberts himself was partisan, writing, “I don’t agree very often with Chief Justice Roberts, especially his partisan decisions which seem highly political on Citizens United, Janus, and Shelby. But I am thankful today that he—almost alone among Republicans—stood up to President Trump and for an independent judiciary.”

The contretemps between Trump and Roberts started on Tuesday when Trump slammed Judge Jon Tigar of U.S. District Court in Northern California, who ruled against Trump’s policy that would require migrants to apply for asylum at legal border crossings. Trump stated, “This was an Obama judge, and I’ll tell you what, it’s not going to happen like this anymore,”

Roberts took the unusual step of criticizing a president publicly, stating, “We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges. What we have is an extraordinary group of dedicated judges doing their level best to do equal right to those appearing before them. That independent judiciary is something we should all be thankful for.” . . .

According to SupremeCourt.gov, as quoted by fivethirtyeight.com, since Justice Neil Gorsuch joined the Court in April 2017, the four left-leaning judges on the Supreme Court are far more consistent about voting together as a bloc than the conservatives on the court; Elena Kagan votes with Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg an average of 89% of the time; Breyer votes with his cohorts an average of 91% of the time; Ginsburg also votes with her pals an average of 91% of the time, and Sotomayor joins them 90.3% of the time.
