Yo Dems, it's REALLY hard to motivate folks to vote for you when you turn your back on your constituents to vote with a party that is ok with kidnapping, starving folks, taking away healthcare and protecting a pedophile ring.
On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message.

“Fight for us”

“Fight for working class Americans”

“Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty”

5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message.

“Nah”

I’m old enough to remember when the New Hampshire House passed a repeal of the death penalty and then-governor Jeanne Shaheen vetoed it because she wanted to become a Senator.

And she became a Senator so she could betray her party, her region and progressive values in DC just as she did in Concord.

I like how there’s even a single Democratic politician in DC still willing to pretend that the Republican Party can be negotiated with in good faith

With one more week, Trump would have owned far more of the responsibility for SNAP and flight cutbacks.

If Democrats had held out for just 12 more hours, they would have seen that Trump was going to be FORCED to fund SNAP and that that should not have been the centerpiece of a negotiation to betray 40 million Americans on healthcare

Senate Democrats who voted to end the shutdown acknowledged that negotiations were going nowhere.

In the end, fatigue and frustration triumphed over anger and anxiety at President Trump.

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.

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.
