Senator Chuck Schumer got a rude awakening Sunday at the New York City LGBTQ Pride parade when the far-left crowd turned on him, with a loud chorus of boos.
Footage from the parade shows Schumer walking as boos erupt from the crowd.
Schumer has spent years trying to promote himself as a strong ally to the movement, pushing seemingly endless progressive legislation on gender, same-sex marriage, and other LGBTQ-focused policies.
Despite the frigid response to his presence, Schumer busted out a megaphone and addressed the crowd.
“I was the first senator to ever march in this parade. 1999. I haven’t missed one yet,” he declared.
