It wasn’t that Schumer could not control his caucus because the caucus colluded to orchestrate this outcome. Every single D senator needs to be primaried. Then we vote out the Rs with the new guard and fight any shenanigans.
I don’t want Chuck Schumer out because of his no vote to end the shut down. I want Chuck Schumer out because he couldn’t control his caucus and 8 of the people in it defected to the fascist side and voted with them!
He needs to be gone as Senate minority leader like yesterday!

Anyone who believes that the Senators who voted for the non-deal did so without Schumer’s consent while he votes no for show is gullible & naive. You either do this with a plan and exit strategy or you don’t do it at all. There is a disconnect between Dem voters & Sen leadership.

Obviously, Chuck Schumer never went to the Nancy Pelosi school of how to hold your caucus together🤦🏼♀️.

He is right. We have no legitimate D leadership - only a bunch of bought criminals.
This right here.
Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

I don’t care who the 8 were who voted with the Rs - they conspired with D leadership to do this. Schumer has to go (Pelosi would never have allowed this to happen). What was the point of the shutdown if you were going to capitulate? Fucking cowards - primary every single D senator running in ‘26.

Schumer is a fucking coward - primary every single one of them. Why are Ds so ducking pathetic.
Please don’t think this beltway game of having retiring Dem senators vote yes while everyone else votes no is going to shield leadership from the end result. We see what is happening and can’t be fooled by those games.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

There was a time when she spoke out against sexual harassment perpetrated by people like Roger Ailes and Bill O’Reilly, but that was a different Kelly. Now as long as she likes the job they’re doing, getting a little “handsy” is ok.

Traditional American politics is premised on the notion that sometimes you lose and sometimes you win and you have to deal with that.
But Trumpism is premised on the notion that any result where you don’t win is illegitimate, unlawful, fraud, criminal.
You can’t negotiate with people like that.
