Exactly. A Sophie’s Choice. . I had called begging for a no. Then saw arguments that were scary. A shutdown could have given Trump more power and only the R’s could lift the showdown. We could’ve been shutdown forever and Trump declaring some bs. I’m focusing my anger at R’s. We’re eating our faces

One day, Schumer was going to vote against the CR. The next day, he decided to vote for the CR. No explanation since the facts were the same. No explanation why he changed his mind. Therefore, the only assumption is that there is corruption involved.

If you think people aren't attacking Trump, Musk, and the rest of MAGA you are blind. We knew what we were getting with Trump. He's a criminal, a bigot, a nepo baby, and a sexual abuser. That doesn't mean that we should look the other way when Democrats are corrupt and fail to lead.
