    He wanted to be the leader, and he was the leader of the ones who chose to end the shutdown. Either he orchestrated it or he has no control. Either way, fuck him

      Being a leader doesn’t mean the rest of the Senators in his party are his slaves that have to do his bidding. Republicans break ranks sometimes too. It happens because Senators focus on their constituency because that’s what keeps them in power.

      Yeah fuck him, not the people who actually voted to reopen the government. That makes sense. Using scapegoats instead of those who are actually to blame. Using emotion instead of logic. It’s pathetic.

      There is literally nothing Schumer could do that wouldn’t result in you criticizing him, made plenty clear by the ridiculous stretch you’re taking here. You’ve prejudged any action he could take. He’s the evil “establishment” Democrat that people like you have decided are worse than Republicans. Just admit the truth.
