Schumer Shutdown Showdown!
The truth is, Democrats are trapped between their radical base demanding resistance at all costs and the reality that they don't have the political leverage to make demands. It's almost enough to make you feel sorry for them. Almost.
Okay, not really.

Come on, Chuckie...eff it up, come on screw the pooch...FAFO!
Lol! he voted against shutting down.
Well, he said he would vote that way...vote happens today...
But, these clowns are such children and twice as full of sh*t as any random shyster in the NYC phone book...
Update (2145ET): After bending the knee to the GOP and agreeing to vote 'yes' on the House-passed continuing resolution to fund the
government through September, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) offered a contrived outburst on MSNBC, calling Republicans 'bastards' before quickly correcting himself.
"To have the conflict on the best ground we have, summed up in a sentence, that they're making the middle class pay for tax cuts for billionaires?" said Schumer. "It's much, much better not to be in the middle of a shutdown, which should divert people from the number one issue we have against these bastards, sorry, these people, which is not only all these cuts, but they're ruining democracy."
How many times did he practice that in the mirror?
Schumer also raged on X after bending the knee, writing that "a shutdown would be a gift," and "the best distraction he could ask for from his awful agenda."
Whatever you say Chuck...This bastard, sorry repugnant serial-liar of a bastard...is so full of sh*t not even a gallon of Listerine could kill the stench of his lying breath!
First, he promised a shutdown...and he wet his diaper and caved faster than even Mitch the Post-Turtle ever did.
Second, the middle class isn't paying for tax cuts...we, all classes of taxpayers are retaining the cuts Trump gave us in his first term...there is NO COST TO EXTENDING THE TRUMP TAX RATES, NONE you miserable lying POS!
Third, as for the new tax cuts, actually no taxes on Social Security, tips or overtime...these primarily go to Middle and Lower earner taxpayers, IDIOT! And, they cost nothing too. As proven in every significant tax cut in our history they result in more collections by the government because of the economic growth they spawn!
Fourth, Trump & Musk already have carte blanche to eliminate waste fraud and abuse in government, dumbass! Codifying it in the final funding bill is coming and I look forward to your lies and reasons for not eliminating waste fraud and abuse in new spending!
Lastly, no threat to "democracy" only your definition of "democracy" to mean your ilk getting your way on everything and grifting off the massive bloated bureaucracy and its attendant waste fraud and abuse, you miserable criminal bastard!
And he made his bullsh*t statements after what is being reported as a contentious caucus meeting where someone is said to have heard Sen. Gillibrand loudly screeching. We were promised the Schumer Shutdown to protest the Trump Admin cleaning up the grotesque bureaucratic bloat and attendant waste fraud and abuse...instead we only get toxic-leftist infighting and a pathetic tucked-tail bleating to the press by Chuck-U...
What a total disappointment...

Whatever... Get so tired of all these dances... Wanted One Big Beautiful Bill put through, going nuclear option if necessary... Toxic-Dems in majority they get everything... Pubbies in majority they don't know how to wield power...
