Schumer Stuck His Foot In His Mouth And Now He Owns The Shutdown
New York Sen. Charles Schumer must think someone elected him President of the United States.

That dream scenario for him, and nightmare for everyone else, must be playing in his head.

Because now the Senate minority leader is making demands of what President Donald Trump must do if he wants to reopen the government.

And guess what his demand is.

“Everyone knew yesterday, long before the House vote, that the president’s wall lacked 60 votes in the Senate,” he said on the floor of the Senate on Saturday.
“It will never pass the Senate, not today, not next week, not next year,” he insisted.

“So Mr. President, President Trump, if you want to open the government, you must abandon the wall, plain and simple,” he said.


His arrogance is off the charts.


But in his arrogance he made one giant mistake.

He took ownership of the shutdown.
By telling the president that he is the one that will not budge this shutdown is his.

Lock, stock and barrel.

Senator Chuck Schumer could have kept the government open today. He demanded that @realDonaldTrump “abandon” securing our border and protecting America from drug and #humantrafficking. Maybe Chuck & Nancy have forgotten how bad the #opioidepidemic is right now?#SchumerShutdown

Good now he can choke on it !

Trump won’t back down!

 

[DoD1776]

Maybe these filthy politicians should lose their pay until they can get ahold of it.

Wait never mind, they’re rich from payoffs and bribes.

 

[Twogunwilly]

Part of the wall needs to include proper backstops for firing squads for traitors as well as ne'er-do-wells.

What the Democrats don't get, is that some of us don't mind the shutdown.

What should terrify him, is if it lasts long enough for most Americans to realize it doesn't affect them, they will start realizing how much they don't need that part of government.

Eventually people will just ask why we were ever paying for that stuff.

That and the tax payers money pissed off on other countries that could give two shits about about who's paying it the whole shits a joke unbelievable

 

[Podmonkey]

God I hate that motherfucker.
There is nothing on this earth as loathsome as a New York democrat.

 

[Shadow2]

Shut downs should be just that a shut down. No back pay for anyone. Its pointless unless the right people feel the sting.

Seems like everyone gets their back pay in the end ...

 

[Duke]

I don't like this schumer.....

 

[Grimscale]

These are assholes who are making MILLIONS on the side just because of where they "work", you think telling them they won't get to keep their paltry $100G is going to make a single impression on them?

They need to be removed from office and incarcerated for the remainder of their term as the fraudsters they are. As a bonus each one of them should be fined the total amount of money the Country wastes because of their political shitshow "shutdown".
Maybe then they will realize they were elected to office to do their damned jobs!

 

[prambo]

Good now he can choke on it !

I'd rather he choked to death on a bag of syphilitic dog dicks.

 

[Jem45472]

I think Schumer's name should go on the wall.

 

[shootemup]

You know what REALLY sucks ass? The non essentials who don't go to work during the shutdown, will be sitting on their ass at home. And THEN they will get paid their back pay.........for sitting on their ass at home !!!!!!

When the new Congress is seated does the bill die if the senate doesn’t vote. Is Schumer trying to run out the clock. The democratic controlled house next year will not pass it and Schumer can blame them.

[Acer-m14]

TRUMP Should make a new EO .. during the shut down there is no political tweets or FB post .. u know like yelling fire when there not one .. LOL

That’s a good question. Does the house approval die with the new term or can the Senate move on it? Personally I think they should bring it to a vote and make the dems filibuster

 

[ProgSpear]

This is tied to the budget. If McTurtle had any balls, he would pass it using the budget reconciliation process, which only requires a simple majority. That's how the Dhimmicrats passed Obambam-care.

 

[holdover]

Hes talking to the right guy. Trump is a problem solver. He doesnt take no for an answer .chucky says we're never giving you the money for a wall. Ahhhhhhaaaa. Trumps says you won't have to.

He's not an idiot . he knows dam well he can't get the money from Congress. But that doesn't mean he can't get the money .that's where chucky gets checkmated .theres more than one way to skin a cat and you can bet he has a team of lawyers and accountants working on it 24, 7
Who's got it ,how they can legally get it ,how long it's going to take. How they can get it faster.

I don't know if he can get it done but I don't underestimate this guy for a minute .its personal now. He's making plans and they're celebrating their victory. I know who I'm betting on.

Eventually people will just ask why we were ever paying for that stuff.

If people were involved and educated, yes! ..but I have little faith this is the case.
unless the shutdown impacted their iphones and tablets or Sundays night's football league or soap operas.
We live in times of substandard, mediocre at best type of citizen.
