sorry, are you arguing that Chuck Schumer would rather have a majority of socialists than a minority of right-wing Democrats? because I don't buy it. a majority of socialists would be agitating for change that the Democratic donor base would oppose. it's much easier for Schumer to hang out in a minority, look like he's fighting the good fight while avoiding any sort of move to redistribute wealth to the people. the fact that (as you point out) he's terrible at even just doing that is hilarious.
