The cynical plan was to get through election time

Teflon Don

I'm back baby
Schumer always planned to open the gobble,ent back up after the elections. They wanted the shutdown to dominate the headlines. Then after the elections were over he signalled to eight senators to vote to end cloture. Don’t be fooled.

Democrats ALWAYS vote on lock step. I don’t know of any major voting issue that Dick Durbin went against Schumer.

Don’t be fooled
 
The Dems caved and the free healthcare for illegals is going bye bye.
That is the current narrative, but something is fishy. When has Dick Durbin ever defied Schumer? It is all just a little too inconvenient that after the elections that these leftists say was such a resounding win for them that they would "cave".

If anything the so called resounding election wins should have emboldened them.
 
BTW, is it a coincidence that all eight democrat party senators who supposedly "caved" are not up for re-election in 2026?

Just a coincidence right?

Kennedy predicted this exact scenario

“It will end eventually when Senator Schumer goes to six or eight of his members and his Democrats and says, ‘Do me a favor. Vote to open it back up. I may have to criticize you, I’m not gonna vote with you, but I need a way out of this. I need an offering.’” He even warned, with his trademark wit, that Schumer would have to be careful not to make it look orchestrated. Because, as he put it, “if it looks contrived… he’s boned.”

I missed that. The problem is that not one of the people who voted with republicans are up for re-election, which means no primary and there is ZERO chance Dicky Durbin is getting voted out of office in Chicago.

Fetterman may have been the only one acting on principle based on recent comments, but I don't trust any of them.

Not all is as it appears.

What is funny is that not one leftist even considers this as a possibility. Maybe because it would show that they were played by their own party?
