B-Man Posted October 10, 2021 Posted October 10, 2021 Nice work Chuck. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has never been known as one of the brightest bulbs in the room. He proved it once again on Thursday night when he took off on an epic partisan rant against Republicans who had just thrown him a lifeline on extending the debt limit by agreeing to a short-term increase. Schumer accused the GOP of playing a “dangerous and risky partisan game,” claiming that Democrats were able to “pull our country back from the cliff’s edge that Republicans tried to push us over.” Schumer tried to lay the entire blame for the debt ceiling increase debacle at the feet of his nemesis. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell enraged Republicans and cut the legs from underneath his Democratic colleague Senator Joe Manchin, whose efforts to lower the temperature in the Senate were blown up by Schumer’s ridiculous partisanship. Instead of hailing the agreement as a sign that the two parties could work together, Schumer set off a bomb that had immediate blowback. https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/rick-moran/2021/10/09/mcconnell-tells-biden-youre-on-your-own-when-it-comes-to-the-debt-limit-n1522760
Irv Posted October 10, 2021 Posted October 10, 2021 Schumer is becoming a bigger joke than Pelosi and Demented Biden. What a mess.
B-Man Posted October 14, 2021 Posted October 14, 2021 Politicians = cowards...............ALL of them
SoCal Deek Posted October 15, 2021 Posted October 15, 2021 Washington is run by totally selfish tribalists. Their response to a lack of movement or compromise is to move even FURTHER away, not closer to, their counterparts across the aisle. It’s ruining this country.
ALF Posted November 16, 2021 Posted November 16, 2021 The Democrats in Congress better start soon to raise the debt ceiling by reconciliation alone. Don't count on Republicans to grant another short extension or long deal. Shutting down the gov before Christmas would be final disaster for democrats in 22 and 24.

They didn’t need a single Republican vote to do it, but that process would’ve been lengthy and difficult, and they might have had their own party members (looking at you, AOC) with stupid, last-minute items that would’ve embarrassed the party by revealing the truly radical nature of their power base. So, McConnell gave in and did Schumer a favor. Remember how Schumer thanked him? By laying into him with a diatribe on the floor of the Senate. Remember how Manchin reacted? “This is crazy,” you can see Manchin mouth to an unseen colleague. He then buries his head in his hands in frustration and despair before he gets up and storms out of the chamber while Schumer continues his rant. You want a picture of incivility? That’s the freaking Mona Lisa right there. And it pretty much set the table for Manchin from that day forward, culminating in his proclamation to Brett Baier on Sunday. Manchin knows that there’s no way forward with these people. And the old, trusted allies he fooled himself into thinking he had (Schumer and Biden) are long gone. That speech from Schumer may have made the New York Democrat feel great. Must’ve been real cathartic for him. And the lefties on Twitter absolutely loved it as well. “Slay Queen!” they tweeted in all CAPS! Good for Chuck! He owned the cons for a night and alienated the one guy he needed to accommodate, thus ensuring his status as a failed Senate leader. He also solidified the death knell for his president’s last chance to get anything done before Republicans take over the House and the Senate in eleven months. This could mean that the Biden presidency, in terms of any real legislative achievements that would matter to a Democrat, is over. And Chuck Schumer ended it. https://townhall.com/columnists/larryoconnor/2021/12/21/is-this-the-moment-schumer-ruined-whats-left-of-bidens-presidency-n2600858

Why do these dum ass people think they need to continually increase spending ? It's because they don't have a F N clue how to balance a check book for gods sake & they are the ones that made it this way yet they B word about every single time and wonder why they need to increase it WTF . And We the People continue to let these num nuts run the country so what does that say about We the People ??? 🤔 Schumer is a ass hat !!!
