AOC is Tweeting

You think the country overwhelmingly supports trump, That's what happens when you choose to fall for all of trump's lies.
I know that the MAJORITY of the country does.

Why do you hate democracy?
 
Perhaps you should consider why instead of sticking with your My way or the highway plan.
I guess you didn't notice that both sides have dug in with My way or the highway plans that have resulted in a month long shutdown.

And only the republicans are willing to keep the govt open while they negotiate.
 
Repubs shut down the government with their my way or the highway attitude. They would be willing to negotiate the impasse otherwise.
Fact checkers have discovered the following problem with your post:

You spelled Chuck Schumer wrong.

Other than that, you're good.
 
You still haven't answered why they are afraid to negotiate.
They aren't. They negotiated a bill to pay the military and fed workers yet Schumer's posse voted it down.

You know I really feel for the Democrats. They've boxed themselves into a corner over their self created debacle and now the only way out for them is to inflict pain and suffering on the citizens they represent.

It's the only leverage they have.... :biggrin:
 
You've stated your point of view. Others disagree. You still haven't answered why they are afraid to negotiate.
Who is not negotiating? Republicans have offered bills to fund the government, and Schumer has refused to budge. He's demanding everything or nothing.

This remains the Schumer Shutdown. The democrats really should have realized how alliterative that is and how easy it is to pin it on him.

Negotiate only after giving you what you want? Did you ever give the car lot their full asking price before negotiating a price? Only Democrats are willing to negotiate.

That why the only leverage they have is forcing pain and suffering on the American people for political gain?
 
BULLDOG....so glad you see how the democrats are holding our country hostage until they get what they want.

What proposal have they put on the table that is short of their entire list of demands? The Republicans have put forth proposals that would keep the government running and SNAP benefits going out.

Got it. They have multiple bills they are unwilling to compromise on.
 
Why aren't repubs even trying to negotiate a solution? Their my way or the highway attitude won't let them. Democrats have made several offers to discuss the differences in hopes of working something out.
if the Dems wanted it their way they should have won the WH and both Houses of Congress in 2024 ..

The clean CR doesn't need negotiating. Do you understand what clean means?

During Joe Biden's presidency (January 20, 2021–January 20, 2025), Congress passed 13 clean continuing resolutions (CRs) to provide short-term government funding and avert shutdowns. These were bipartisan measures that extended prior-year funding levels without major policy changes, and they received near-unanimous Republican support in both chambers.

Why are democrats so unwilling to compromise like the republicans did the entire Biden presidency?

Dudes an Internet DNC stooge.

The Democrats had no intention of negotiating about the continuing resolution. not until chuck Schumer proved himself to AOC by shutting down the government.

The shutdown was the actual goal of the Democrats unreasonable to the point of being nearly impossible demand.

If there were to be negotiations, the Republicans, upon seeing the Democrats fill their continuing resolution with a Santa Claus sized gift bag full of their own policy priorities, would have come up with a continuing resolution full of republican policy priorities.

Then there would have been the usual back room negotiations of the "we'll give you this. If you give us that" type. It is not pretty to see the sausage being made that way, but that is how negotiations have been done for more than two centuries.
