SCBills Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago Just now, SectionC3 said: Meanwhile, Trump is fighting to not provide SNAP benefits. He had an easy out and could have just blamed the courts. Nobody's hands are clean here. But, objectively speaking, Schumer is cleaning Trump's clock from a political perspective this week. Yes, Schumer is winning. Also, sign the clean CR. He won’t, because hes winning, but that doesn’t absolve the left of suffering. Both sides are perfectly fine with people struggling as they fight for power. If you can’t acknowledge that, then you’re purely partisan and there’s nothing further to discuss.

But he won’t give an inch. And the “ask” for Dems is on health care. Totally reasonable, from my point of view. So they’re both at fault to an extent, but objectively I see Trump as the one being more unreasonable. 1 1 1

And here I thought Schumer was a senile old coot who thought The West Wing was a documentary.

Totally reasonable, from my point of view Does the dems “ask” still include COVID-era subsidies for families making up to 600k/yr? If so, the dems “ask” amounts to one of those handouts to the rich you normally whine about. Now, because of party politics only, that’s totally reasonable from your point of view. Nice work.

I think because the only reason the Dems suddenly became flexible is the election came and went so holding the line no longer provides any politiical value. Too far away from Nov 2026. Secondly, the majority has traditionally imposed the clean continuing resolution approach on the minority and there's nothing special about this budget impasse exercise that warrants any conditions. The idea being this is what you guys force us to accept and suddenly now that its your turn you want flexibility. Perspective can change a lot.
