Chuck Schumer’s absurd attack on the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision

Chuck Schumer’s absurd attack on the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision: There is an interesting debate about the origins of the expression, “You can fool some of the people all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but you cannot fool all of the people all of the time.” Although often attributed to Abe Lincoln (and sometimes to P.T. Barnum), there appears to be no clear evidence Lincoln ever actually uttered those words and considerable evidence tracing the quote to earlier sources.

Whatever its origins, I must confess that the quote comes to mind when I see Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s smirk after he seems confident his latest pronouncement will fool at least some of the people—as when he blames the influx of millions of illegal aliens across our southern border on Donald Trump. Indeed, I find Schumer’s smirk nearly as annoying as Kamala Harris’s persistent cackling.
