When Chuck Schumer and 9 other DINOs (Democrats in Name Only) voted with Republicans to enable Trump's agenda to proceed; they betrayed every democratic voter in these United States.

By working with MAGA, who are in the midst of dismantling and privatizing every aspect of government, Schumer has stripped the Democrats of their only procedural weapon to fight (or at least slow down) the Republican's agenda to eliminate the social safety network, women's rights, civil rights, voting rights, and environmental protections...in order to install a theocratic and corporate/billionaire autocracy.

Why did Schumer announce he opposed the spending bill, which not only advanced the Republican's goals but also codified much of the assault by DOGE and Trump, and suddenly support it 24 hours later? I wonder who might have called to pressure him to help the Republicans? Was it perhaps his corporate and donor class masters who are salivating at the chance to allow private equity to take a bite out of every tax dollar that passes through Washington? Of course it was.

Senator Schumer can spin his betrayal any which way he desires. He voted for a measure written by and sponsored by Republicans whom desperately needed it to pass. Schumer voted against the overwhelming majority of House and Senate Democrats to stand with, and support, Republicans.

When will the DINO's realize that you cannot negotiate with fascists? The Democrats must expel these DINO's from the party and fight, unapologetically and relentlessly, for its base...the way the Republicans fight for their base (no matter how insane the elements of their base might be).

Chuck Schumer and the DNC establishment yearn for some mythical time of Tip O'Neal/bipartisanship when the Democrats and Republicans were happily walking hand in hand with their corporate overlords as they whistled past the graveyards of the middle class. For the past 60 years the sole mission of the Republican part has been to dismantle the rights and protections which Roosevelt, Kennedy, and Johnson worked so hard to establish. And for the past 60 years the Democrat's solution to fighting this evil has been to slowly step to the right with every election.

You want bipartisanship? Ask Neville Chamberlain how well his bipartisan negotiations went in Munich.
