If you Want Senate Dems to Shutdown the Government Rather than Allow the Spending Bill Pass, what is Your Goal?

Schumer warned that his caucus of 47 senators "is unified" in opposing the 6-1/2 month funding bill passed by the House with only one Democrat there voting in favor of it.

Blocking the bill would require at least 41 of Schumer's Democrats to vote against limiting debate on it, which could stop the measure dead in its tracks and could lead to a partial shutdown, which Democrats have long opposed as needless chaos. Their wariness of a shutdown comes amid Trump's rapid-fire campaign to unilaterally shutter many federal operations, which Democrats note is already causing disruption.

Democrats can absolutely block the spending bill, which would have the effect of de-funding government effective midnight Friday. It's called a filibuster, though the legacy media is avoiding that word like the plague, now that it is Democrats who may do it.

So, if this shutdown is what you want, what are you hoping to force the majority party to do, using this power granted by Senate rules to the minority party?

If you were Schumer and were engineering the Schumer Schutdown, what would its goal be?

Man look how the tables have turned... it use to be that it was always the republicans fault if a shutdown happened... not no more.....

These libtarded Democrap Congress-critters don’t learn their lessons. Ever.

Their goal is to undermine Trump (knowing that their liberal main stream media propagandists will dutifully peddle the Democrap horseshit). But it will never work again because they lost their stranglehold on the dissemination of their crap.

So, looks like a "shut down".

And watch how the Dems with the full aiding and abetting of the liars in the MSM try to blame Republicans.

Don't fall for it.


Oh! The humanity. Democrats are about to inflict horrible damage to people, people losing Medicare and Medicaid en masse, with their filibuster of the House budget.

Saving the country is what they hope.

Personally I think we should just sit back and give the tRumplings as much rope as they want.

Pretty non-specific.

And yet still accurate.

Address the debt. Yes I know the Democrats aren't going to do that but since they won't and it seems the Republican's won't. Shut it down.

Chuckie Baby reminds me of a freshly installed & cleaned glass pane installed into a window frame, like one can see right through him from either front or back!
