Despite his “no” vote, the Senate deal to reopen the government bears Schumer’s fingerprints
Either Schumer no longer has effective control over own his caucus, or he has permitted the deal to progress with a wink and a nod behind the scenes — and with a strident disavowal for the bank of cameras he famously loves — while taking Democratic voters for fools.
The blame was on the Republicans until Schumer decided to be a Nazi
Democrats are honestly a bunch of fucking pussies at this point.
There’s a literal fascist authoritarian wannabe in charge and where’s the resistance? Christ, MTG is being more critical of Trump than they are.
Resistance should be grassroots organized, please don’t rely on the Democrats (or any political party) for that.
“At this point” implies there were not pussies at some point. The Democrats have always been cowards.
People keep forgetting it’s not left v right, it’s rich v poor. Democrat leaders are just playing their part.
Get rid of his weak Nazi appeasing ass…40 days for nothing
It’s so fricking infuriating because, literally we were actually seeing the cracks form. Trump admin is violating the hatch act, pushing “dem’s have shut down the government”, and yet poll after poll shows the american people put the blame on the republicans. Trump was constantly boo’d to his face at the commanders game… and the democrats had an amazing election where they won every contest they were in. I can’t fathom a worse time to fold

That’s your answer right there: the moment the election was over, they went back to screwing over the voters on behalf of their owner donors.
If the election had been a week from now, they’d have caved by Thanksgiving at the latest.
His whip voted yes. Either he can’t even control his whip, or he orchestrated it.
It’s the latter. Just magically the 8 that are retiring or aren’t up for reelection just manically all got together at the same time to do this? Right…
Every single elected democrat should be primaried from the left in 2028, full stop.
“Every single” is the kind of lazy shit that gets us into this mess. It’s going to take more thought than that.
8 democrats are not the entire party. The party is made up of individuals.
- Senator Tim Kaine of Virginia
- Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois
- Senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire
- Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania
- Senator Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire
- Senator Angus King of Maine
- Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada
- Senator Jacky Rosen of Nevada
The leftists candidates are no longer the spoilers. The Democrats are spoiling it for leftists. The center is just gone.
Now, Roginsky is “thoroughly disgusted,” she said. “I don’t understand why they would subject people to hunger and to layoffs and to flight delays and to missed paychecks for the past 40 days, if only to get nothing out of it now.”
…
Schumer, who was the target of near-universal vitriol among Democrats in March when he backed down in a budget battle that threatened to evolve into a shutdown, was quick to announce his opposition to the deal and he voted against it Monday night.
But in fact, his fingerprints are all over it.
Get rid of this useless piece of shit, Schumer needs to be in a nursing home.
Take the other traitor fucks there with him.
Does anyone know the strategy or play for doing this? I mean, this seams super weak on the surface. I do know that the timing or the next negotiations would be advantageous, but geesh, that the best they got?
Elections are over. That was the stop gap. Now they have to reopen so people can get paid to go shopping for holiday season.
That was the plan all along.
Chuck Schumer should run as Gavin Newsom’s vice president.
That would be a good choice - schumer is the only dem who could make newsom look principled by comparison.
This is Fetterman erasure.
hahaha yesss
They can send the checks to one address that way. streamLINING.
