but the proof is in the pudding, Sen. Schumer capitulated, there's really no other term to describe this betrayal of the Sen. Dems.
Sen. Schumer may have voted no, but the only reason he did is because he knew he had the votes to cave, but make no mistake, he caved to the repigs.
I'll always vote Dem, but I'm now holding my generous contributions to the national Dems, for progressive candidates only.
I predict a red wave in 2026 and 2028 because of this betrayal to the Democratic Party.
This Liberal, yes, proud Liberal, is pissed off at this betrayal of Democratic Party principles.
This is a clear case of snatching defeat from the Jaws of Victory.
