Even if I mostly agree with what Chuck Schumer said, it was wildly inappropriate for a member of a government of a foreign country to be talking about what the Israeli government should do politically. It is not his place to talk about that and it comes off as if the USA is dictating political policy to a vassal state.
Israel is an independent country. Israel does not appreciate political meddling by foreign powers, at least not when done so blatantly.
Netanyahu is a problem for the USA, but that is a problem they have to overcome via policy. Netanyahu is a problem for Israel, and Israelis have to overcome that problem politically. Israelis dont want [overt] help from the USA in the political arena.
Schumer might be right but it isnt his business to meddle into.
