just watched #ChuckSchumer the #LateShow with #StephenColbert ...

This man needs to go.

"The real reason for Schumer’s surrender was a mystery until this week. In an interview with Chris Hayes following the backlash, he was asked if we were facing a constitutional crisis. His response: “We’re not there yet.”

It was a stunning admission. The problem isn’t just Schumer’s strategy – it’s his perception of reality. He is conducting business as usual while the country burns."

>> "[#Democrats] capitulating so obviously to #Trump in return for corporate money, has just ripped out the heart that ran the #Clinton, #Obama, and much of the … #Biden administrations… at the only moment in the last two decades during which normal Democrats are looking for someone to blame for their own party’s fecklessness.

And who better to blame than the would-be #KamalaHarris staff… and Chuck #Schumer’s brother - who, when the chips were down, bent the knee to Trump?"

Today's boilerplate:

""...Republican sources, who told [#Schumer] that the administration was baiting the Democrats into shutting down the government." The WH wld use shutdown to accelerate demolishing govt and blame Dems."

"accelerate demolishing govt and blame Dems"

And demolishing the US government isn't happening anyway?

Or is the critical point a matter of degree and the list of alleged participants?

#Schumer and the #Democrats should have drawn a red line and said "This is where our limit lies. We will not come across and help you in any way beyond this. Republicans as a political party own whatever happens next"

But that's too subtle a message, and one for which the Democratic gerontocracy has no backbone

Remember: "Vote Blue! No Matter Who!!"

Nope. Never again"

>> Chuck Schumer believes that Americans and the world would be worse off with these Republicans in charge of the USA while the government is shutdown versus keeping it open with a bad CR.You believe that you know better than does he. Why should I trust you over the Senator with so much experience and knowledge?

I never asked you to trust me.

I said I don't trust #Schumer anymore to advance the interest of the #US & #Democratic electorate.

Big Difference!
