Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer celebrated the Democrats’ midterm victory on Wednesday morning with a nod to a previously ridiculed photo. The Brooklyn Democrat took to Instagram, sharing an image of himself smiling next to a smoking grill. The grill was packed with burgers and hot dogs, each bearing the faces of Republican candidates who lost their races, as well as President Trump and Vice President JD Vance, depicted with a humorous twist.
Schumer’s post followed the success of winning 54 seats in the midterms. Accompanying the photo, he wrote, “54 seats and counting. And I learned how to grill… these burgers and dogs are finally cooked.” This post was a playful comeback to a past photo shared on Father’s Day 2024, where Schumer was shown at the grill with raw burger patties. The image then became a source of widespread mockery, prompting Schumer to remove it.
