I am almost certain that Schumer is being threatened.
No. He likes being republicans’ lackey. He’s living the centrist dream right now.

If a shutdown is so great for republicans, why are they voting against it?
Under a democrat. The greater evil is deportation, so we should all be happy with arrest.
Caving to the republicans was all the reward schumer needed.
How does a government shutdown give Trump more power?
It doesn’t. It’s a straight up lie. He’s enthusiastically complicit.
No, they just want silence from all critics to their left so they can listen to the critics to their right.
Why are you ashamed at yourself for doing the correct thing?
Voting to give genocide support a mandate is not the correct thing to anyone but centrists.
Primary them. The primary is where a protest vote actually matters.
Provided the primaries are trustworthy. Or exist at all.
If Republicans didn’t have majority then there wouldn’t be any DNC making difficult choices.
“Difficult choices”? How difficult is it for democrats to cave to republicans? At this point, it’s reflex. It’s not a difficult choice to yawn when you see someone else yawn.
Centrists think any criticism of their deliberate uselessness is a trumpist. They like the uselessness.
You mean to say that you disagree with democrats voting to end cloture?
The reason they’re still in office is for 30 years the DNC has put protecting incumbents above all else
Protecting centrist incumbents above all else. They didn’t do shit to protect Cori Bush or Jamaal Bowman, for exactly one reason.
I’m not giving anyone this shitty party selected for any position the benefit of the doubt until I see how they actually behave in situ.
What does this even mean? I wanted you to vote for Harris. Did you vote for Harris?
Yes. I will never stop resenting the democratic party for manipulating me into voting to give genocide a mandate. And centrists for blaming me when she lost anyway. Now feign confusion again.
I also would have preferred that Harris had changed for the better. Why do you assume that isn’t what I wanted?
Because I opened with that. You ignored it and started lecturing. You are still trying to convince people to vote your way in an election that has already happened. You’re still carrying water for people who supported genocide and who moved to the right for a host of issues, and you don’t have to.
I voted for the genocide supporter you wanted me to instead of the genocide supporter you are ok with because it gives you an excuse to blame the left.
I would have preferred that Harris had changed for the better instead of doing what you wanted and courting your buddies on the right.
Jesus, do centrists EVER stop fucking lecturing? Do you EVER stop being a giant scold to anyone who dares to want better?
How does that even apply?
You literally can’t imagine candidates changing for the better?
No firefighters were running, therefore what?
Therefore they should have grabbed a hose.
You seemed to be arguing for not voting or voting third party rather than voting for Harris with the whole “firefighters” analogy.
That is the assumption from centrists every time someone wants them to be better, yes.
So we allowed the arsonist to get the position
Yes, centrists absolutely did. You had the chance to protect democracy, but the filibuster was more important. So now instead of introspection, you blame the progressives you hate even more than the idea of living Palestinians.
If they didn’t have people to their left to stand against, it would be a tautology.
Yes, that was a lie.
Just enough democrats voted with republicans. There’s always just enough.
