Senator Elizabeth Warren, vice-chair of the Democratic conference, said she was “not pleasantly” surprised by this news, in a classic case of understatement.

Republicans were happy to discuss the dissatisfaction with Schumer they are picking up from Democratic colleagues. Senator Tom Cotton told Fox News: “I think Chuck Schumer may also be hearing footsteps behind him from a possible Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez primary challenge next year.” He said Senate Democrats are currently “incapable of organizing a one-car funeral.”
