Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer took a ridiculous swipe at President Donald Trump amid tariff negotiations, claiming trade disputes could drive up Super Bowl party costs.
In a dumb stunt likened to a bad prop comedy routine, the Democrat New York senator claimed Americans would suffer economically due to rising prices on imported Mexican beer and avocados.
Chuck Schumer claims that President Trump's tariffs will raise the price of beer because "most of it comes from Mexico" while holding a can of corona.

“Let’s just take Super Bowl Sunday, okay?” Schumer said during a press conference Sunday.
“It’s going to affect beer, okay? Most of it, Corona here, comes from Mexico,” Schumer falsely claimed.
“It’s going to affect your guac, because what is guacamole made of?”
“Avocados, both from Mexico.”
“With 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico now in effect, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) railed against the upcoming price spikes coming to your local grocery store, gas pump, small business – even your upcoming Super Bowl party,” Schumer ranted in a Senate Democrats press release.
Schumer was roasted, according to a few social media replies excerpted by Outkick.com:
- This is the same guy that put cheese on a raw hamburger patty on the grill. He probably DID just discover these for the first time.
- Someone want to remind Chuck that Genesse beer is made in Rochester NY? The state he supposedly represents?
- Good friend worked in the Corona barely plant in SE Idaho for decades. He said, “Do NOT drink Corona if it’s the last beer on earth.”
- Only bad beer. They need us to buy avocados more than I need my guac.
- Is this the same guy that can’t grill a burger? Ya he’s new to food I guess!
- They think we’re all 5 yrs old
- He’s the guy that didn’t know how to grill a cheeseburger.
The “burger” comments referred to a 2024 Father’s Day photo where Schumer posed with a BBQ grill showing a slice of cheese on a raw uncooked burger.
Within hours, Schumer’s dumb stunt was already outdated and irrelevant as Trump announced Monday he’d negotiated an agreement with the president of Mexico, who agreed to supply 10,000 troops to the US border to avoid 25% tariffs on imported goods.
Trump is moving so fast on his agenda, Democrats can hardly coordinate their attacks.
