Future Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer trotted out a new
messaging attack on Donald Trump and congressional Republicans on
Tuesday, accusing the GOP of "plotting a war on seniors" with its plans

Trump's secretary of health and human services, Schumer is hoping that
unified Democratic opposition to privatizing health care plans for
seniors can be a rallying point — as well as a political shield to save
endangered Democratic senators. Senate Democrats are defending five
Senate seats in deeply conservative states in 2018, but Schumer vowed
that his entire caucus will oppose any effort to change the current
single-payer Medicare system for seniors.
