Tough position to have been in, obviously, damned if he did, damned if he didn’t, probably time to give up leadership role, maybe retire & bring in some new, capable blood?

Fair take on the situation. He’s not the devil just lacks the fortitude to make the right choice there. He thinks he’s protecting the nation, but it was a strategic blunder.
I understand your point. But I feel that its not like with other shutdowns, the 🟠💩 at the top is a maniacal sociopathic narcissist who wants to be a dicktator. Can't be trusted to play by the rules. He could shut down federal courts, etc.
Hes already on plan B starting to create a war with Iran.
And I agree with you. Nothing about this is normal, they are literally disappearing people. It’s time to go silent I think. I’m concerned they will come after all of us.
Wasn't really that tough of a decision. All the other dems had come to a consensus before he broke and went AWOL and started being honest about being a fascist.
The argument was that a shutdown would also shut down the federal court system. Which didn't really matter because Stephen Mileer ordered the deportation flights to continue regardless of what a judge said.
Its not just that, he could declare state of emergency, tgat congress in operable & take total control.
He's now trying to start shit with Iran.
Guess what, he trying to pull a Netanyahu.
Can't believe he was planning on a book tour in the first place. He is claiming it is about security. The truth is he would be mercilessly booed and criticized. He needs to resign as Senate Minority Leader. Put somebody in that represents us. He's worth $81 million. Ban stock trading in Congress.
Yes it is tough to have to do your job rather than lie back and be complacent. Sorry but Schumer is not the man for the job and I am doubtful he ever was. Schumer is not a fighter, he knew he couldn’t win the fight so rather than continue to fight he let them roll their tanks over him.
So shutting the government is a whole new ball of wax. This isn't like the one we had years back. They are Authoritarian Mafia like criminals.
He could have shut down every federal court in the country.
He and his cabinet would full cart blanche. He could keep it shut down..declare state of Emerg
it’s NOT just shutting down the government- the republicans also stripped veterans who were exposed to burn pits- now those veterans have serious health issues are no funding for their healthcare-
NOTHING.
I know, its fn BS. I'm so very sorry. I have 2 neices that were born w/ problems, my brother was in Iraq. Believe me, the hatred I have for all the traitors enabling him, & for the 🟠💩 dicktator wannabe is immeasurable. He could literally shut down all Federal courts & call any agency not a necessity

No excuses for him. He is in bed with the enemy.

Many agencies would
have disappeared. He made the correct decision.
The job of @schumer.senate.gov is ultimately the same as any other Senator.
A Senator's job is not to have an opinion. It is to be the voice of their constituency. Literally, “Do what we tell you to.”

NOTHING.
