After Vowing That Democrats Would Shut Down the Government, Chuch Schumer Caves Completely

Chuck Schumer more like Cuck Schumer am i rite?

On Wednesday, this ridiculous pompous flabby tick vowed that Democrats would vote against cloture on the House-passed CR, thus shutting down the government.

Schumer's got his big fat flabby ass in a bind. On one hand, his left flank is as unreasoning and hate-filled as ever, and they demand he "fight" Trump on everything, and destroy the country if Trump says he wants to save it.

On the other hand, his left flank is wildly unpopular with the public, and obeying their petulant entitled demands has brought the Democrat-Communist Party to the brink of extinction.

So he decided to take his Clever Pills and settled on a plan:

First, he'd announce he was shutting down the government to block Trump's rush to "dismantle" the government.

You certainly all remember well that Schumer has previously declared that various shutdowns he blamed on the Republicans would essentially destroy the country.

But then, he'd announce he was not shutting down the government, because if the government shuts down Trump gets to decide who will be paid and who will be furloughed or fired, and so shutting down the government would help Trump "dismantle" the government.

Note that Schumer knew that a shutdown would work to Trump's advantage before he announced he would shut the government down. This isn't some breaking news he just found out about. Everyone knew for months that the Democrats had little leverage in a shutdown fight, because Trump would just rightly blame it on the Democrats who caused it, and Trump would be empowered to lay off tens of thousands of Democrat layabout bureaucrats.

But he wanted to show his left flank that he was "tough" and willing to "fight" Trump.

For twenty-four hours, at least.

Chuck Schumer now says he'll vote for the GOP bill to keep the government open. Ignore all his blather about how a shutdown would have helped Trump to further demolish the government. Schumer has caved.

Like all other Democrats, Schumer used to pretend to be interested in cutting waste, fraud, and abuse of the American taxpayer:

House Democrats are "melting down" over Cuck Schumer's betrayal of the lunatic base.

For once, House Democrats are angrier with their own party than Donald Trump. It's ironic: the liberal media and the Democrats expected GOP disarray and chaos, and this shutdown fight sparked a civil war among themselves. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), who Schumer is rumored to be wary of regarding a primary challenge, might have been given the push she needs to plan on that front.
