Twitter Goes Crazy Over Senator Chuck Schumer’s ‘Insurrection’ Gaffe
CNN
Chuck Schumer's recent comments on the Senate floor have people talking for all the wrong reasons!
On Friday, the Senate Majority Leader pushed for an impeachment trial against former President Donald Trump over the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol.
Unfortunately, the New York senator tripped over his words during a speech.
“Make no mistake, there will be a trial and when that trial ends, senators will have to decide if they believe Donald John Trump incited the erection, insurrection, against the United States,” Schumer said.
After the clip went viral, our very own Loni Love commented on the gaffe.

Other Twitter users chimed in, saying:
Well, sometimes insurrection is a HARD word to pronounce.

I regret the image this conjured in my mind. Yuck.
@RonJohnsonsSoul
Damn. That will be hard to live down.
@BankLaker2
Hardest stance Schumer ever took

Schumer says the House's article of impeachment will be delivered to the Senate on Monday, prompting the start of a trial.
