Schumer Shutdown Ending

Are you saying that the GOP will reneg after agreeing?

No. That’s a stupid ******* question. The proposed agreement only requires a vote. It doesn’t require passage.

I wouldn’t put it past them

Nobody cares what you would or wouldn’t put past anybody.

“Test vote”?

I didn’t know that was a thing

It’s a bit misleading. But what they did was to invoke cloture on a filibuster. It doesn’t mean the Senators cannot still take a different position after a debate. But now there will be a debate and a vote.

The way these things are worded, I can't tell if that's the final blow to the shutdown or just another kicking of the can further down the road.

No. It invokes cloture. So it can’t be filibustered. They might still diddle and dawdle a bit. But after debate, it will now come to a vote.

As uneventful as that vote was, I kind of figured as much.

It's all but over now.
Technicalities aside, it is OVER.
No nuclear kinetics needed.
Senator Cornyn flew in right on time.
Poor Chuckie....

Yeah. It helps set the stage for —but it is a big vote to accomplish — that. I assume that’s why some pundit types are now claiming that the Schumer Shutdown is coming to an end.

Schumer is like the schmuck of the Democrats. Just utterly stupid and repulsive

Hey Old Man, you avoided my question, which was ......The Shutdown affects us the same way.
You avoided the question and refused to answer.

Q: I said the Shutdown affects you and I the same. You went off topic, not me.
So, explain how your so-called "Schumer shutdown" affects you and I differently.

With discussion 'feelings'

How the shutdown affects me is irrelevant to the topic. What is your obsession with me. Reported

The Topic IS the shutdown.
You obviously want to blame (D) and call it the Schumer Shutdown.

To me, it is the entire Congress that is ******* us Americans.
Sorry about your blind partisan BS.
You're OLD and Angry...... I know your type.


Mike Johnson is just a puppet of trump.
Trump is just a puppet of Foreign Dictators.

Nobody takes you seriously

Correct. The 44 Schumer democrats shut the government down for 40 days throwing a temper tantrum. It was passed tonight 60 yeas to 40 Nays.

You're OLD and Angry...... I know your type

Off topic, try again. In spite of your trolling attempts, you know nothing about me.

Mike Johnson is just a puppet of trump.
Trump is just a puppet of Foreign Dictators.

Off topic.

 

[Winco]

Nobody takes you seriously

You do, and it pisses you off that you can't defeat me.
I accept your surrender.

 

[Winco]

It was passed tonight 60 yeas to 40 Nays.

Awesome.

Now Congress can actually 'pretend' to be back at work.

Senate Democrats cave, open path to reopening government

The government shutdown neared its end on Sunday as the Senate cleared the first series of votes, with final House approval and President Donald Trump's signature still required.

No I don't. All you do is get mad and troll. Get over yourself

 

[Winco]

No I don't. All you do is get mad and troll. Get over yourself

It would be such a pleasure to have an actual discussion about issues.

Do you want to do this? ^^^^^^^^

America didn't cave! Such a great win to let these democrat stooges know!
