The Maryland Democrat has been critical of Schumer, who has led the caucus for nearly a decade.

Sen. Chris Van Hollen announced Thursday that he would challenge Chuck Schumer for the top Democratic leadership role in the Senate, arguing the party needs to take a more populist direction.

“In this election, the American people called for change. They called for a change from Donald Trump’s disastrous policies — but even bigger than that, a change from the status quo that isn’t working for working people,” Van Hollen, who represents Maryland, said in a statement obtained by The Washington Sun.

    Someone who isn’t older than my parents? It’s not that hard. I’m a full adult, theyre that old.

    How are they going to do anything productive, theyre not full of creative solutions, and leading with new scientific finding. Theyre fucking gross drooling, nose running old people that would drop dead under any kind of physical stress. And theyre ruining our lives, and have been for the decades. They dont represent anyone but senior’s.

    Every shred of potential for the future generations is gone because their “ideas,” have been shit for years upon years and they won’t stop forcing themselves onto us as the control freaks they are.
