Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer received strong criticism from Democratic figures after he backed a GOP-led continuing resolution to fund the government, a move perceived as capitulating to President Trump. MSNBC hosts and Democratic pundits expressed their discontent, with Symone Sanders-Townsend declaring Schumer had folded under pressure. This decision has sparked a debate among Democrats about leadership direction, with questions raised on whether it's time for new leaders to take charge amidst ongoing challenges posed by Trump and his party's actions.
I'm pissed. There's actually little that the Senate minority leader can say, and the ten Democrats that voted with the Republicans can say, to appease somebody like me.
In 2024, Democrats ran on warnings that Trump was going to destroy democracy, and now that he and his team are very much in the process of doing just that, these same politicians are questioning whether or not to stand up to him.
