Right-Wing Twitter Reacts To Chuck Schumer And Nancy Pelosi's Op-Eds

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer published an op-ed in the New York Times on Monday offering a plan forward for Democrats. He outlined a deal for Americans and wrote that the Democrats should be the party of the working class. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi published a corresponding op-ed in the Washington Post.

The two leaders' op-eds are part of a new and wider effort by Democrats to sell their economic plan to America.

"Democrats will show the country that we’re the party on the side of working people — and that we stand for three simple things," wrote Schumer. "First, we’re going to increase people’s pay. Second, we’re going to reduce their everyday expenses. And third, we’re going to provide workers with the tools they need for the 21st-century economy."

Pelosi echoed the sentiment of supporting workers in her op-ed

"It is an ambitious economic agenda that represents a renewed Democratic commitment to the hard-working men and women across the United States who have been left out and left behind for too long. As part of that commitment, Democrats are announcing three new proposals rooted in a bold approach to the challenges facing the United States," wrote Pelosi.

The Senator and Representative's messages got torn apart on social media by right-wing and conservative Twitter accounts.

"We’ve already proposed creating jobs with a $1 trillion infrastructure plan; increasing workers’ incomes by lifting the minimum wage to $15, and lowering household costs by providing paid family and sick leave," wrote Schumer.

Democrats are looking to offer an alternative to President Donald Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan with their own "A Better Deal: Better Jobs, Better Wages, Better Future" slogan.

Schumer began the rollout of the new messaging on Sunday on ABC's "This Week."

"(The plan is) sharp, bold and will appeal to both the old (Barack) Obama coalition ... and the Democratic voters who deserted us for Trump — the blue-collar workers," said Schumer.

Schumer also inadvertently gave his opponents ammo when talking about the Democrat's loss in the 2016 presidential election by saying the party can only blame itself.
