I don't suffer fools or criminals, so if you are either, go away.
Fight on my men, I am hurt, but I am not slain; I'll lay me down and bleed a-while, And then I'll rise and fight again.

We should all understand that they were protecting two things that don't help us.
1. The filibuster, which Trump wanted the Senate to get rid of.
2. Healthcare as an issue in 26. If they had solved that, they wouldn't be able to use it as a campaign issue.
Fucking disgusting.

If Fetterman were an avg loser like the rest of us his ass would be in a wheel chair right now. His stroke in 22 before he took office was a huge deal, and would have put any regular person in a difficult situation. But old Johnny boy had FREE healthcare to back him up.
Piece of shit.

We should also understand that the food affordability crisis is decades in the making. Trump certainly isn't doing shit to solve it. But, if we look at the fact that since the 1950s, on avg food prices have increased by 47 % every decade. That is the kind of stuff that will make a society fail.

Here is one thing in politics and in society that people usually react negatively to, and it is a golden rule that will have far-ranging implications:
You can give something but do not take away something you also gave.
Time will bring consequences. Rest assured.

They decided that being able to use increased healthcare costs as a mid term election issue was more important than defending the right of people to be able to fucking live. This is why politicians and politics disgust me. Never working for anyone but their comp life. No matter if it costs a life.

We should always remember that politicians who are as entrenched as Schumer and King think in political cycles. Weirdly enough, they need peoples premiums to go up to use as a mid term issue. In the meantime due to their need for opportunism people will literally die.
Absolutely disgusting.

The best thing we can do besides vote those Senators out, which would take at least years, is to get rid of their leadership structure. Old man Schumer needs to go, and when people start dying because they have no healthcare, he can explain what he actually got out of giving into Trump once again.

We need to demand that Schumer leave his leadership position, or the democrats force him out. Either way, I am done with these cowards until they show they give a damn about us. Now, 20 million just lost their insurance thanks to a rich dude who has his.

I can't vote for the Democrats after this until they prove to me they are willing to fight for the rights of the people they represent, and not just cave the first instant the heat gets turned up.
Until they change party leadership within the Senate, I am abstaining from voting for this party

So basically, the takeaway from this is that all Trump has to do is go golfing, build ballrooms, and cut off food from needy people, along with just making constant threats for these vapid troglodytes to cave in. So we gain nothing, and now millions lose health insurance. They can all rot in hell.

It should be understood that Senate Democrats need to show resolve and remove him. Otherwise, until they get rid of him, I am done voting for a party that lets a useless, cowardly, uninspiring, gold-bricking old man lead the party. Fuck this dude.

We need to demand that Schumer step down as minority leader, or the Senate Dems need to force it. We have been totally sold out by him and 8 other spineless troglodytes. Does he not realize how unpopular this is among his tribe? Get rid of him tomorrow and get a real leader in there.

There needs to be a concerted effort not only to get rid of Schumer as minority leader, and I mean like tomorrow, and then another effort to get an actual politician with a spine in there who isn't some out-of-touch old man only worrying about satisfying Wall Street and the likes of Cuomo.

I wouldn't if I were you. He is the one who led the charge and is also the first one to help them cave. Schumer, King, and the other eight pieces of shit are just cowards who have no idea what is going on in the lives of real people.

People who sell out the people for bags of cash and their comp life are cowards as far as I am concerned. My allegiance is not to a party but to the American people. So when either of them fucks around with the people they are going to be called out on it.

Due to Cowards like Schumer and King, the only lesson Donald Trump has taken away from this shutdown is to just hold out and make the pain felt as long as you can, before these vacillating old men come running for me to help them again.
I hate the fucking Democrats. Fucking cowardly old men.

If this does go down, the rest of the 2/3rds of the senate democrats need to force him out of his leadership position. That is all there is to it. He is old, uninspiring, a gold-bricker, and a big money man who has no interest in the work of real government. He needed to retire 15 years ago.
