Unforgivable: Donald Trump just made Chuck Schumer POTUS

What do you guys think? This is from a conservative site. Its good to see what they think and keep ourselves informed about the opposition. Looks like they are pretty angry.


The Democrats are in control of the government.

The Republicans may have the majority in both houses of Congress. They may have the presidency. But make no mistake: It’s Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer who are calling the shots in Washington, D.C., with President Donald J. Trump’s support.

The president’s total capitulation occurred in a Wednesday meeting with congressional leaders from both parties. Earlier, Minority Leaders Pelosi and Schumer proposed a plan to tie Hurricane Harvey relief to a short-term debt ceiling increase until mid-December. Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., slammed the plan as “ridiculous and disgraceful,” accusing the Democrats of playing politics with devastated lives and disaster relief funds.

Over the objections of Ryan and virtually every other top Republican — “Basically everyone with an R behind their name," Axios reports — President Trump agreed to support the Democratic plan. To make matters even worse, the president said Wednesday that his administration will always “automatically” agree on increasing the debt ceiling.

The president made a horrendous decision. An unforgivable decision. By agreeing to this plan, he’s ceded the leverage to the Democrats on DACA negotiations, government funding, and every other pet project liberals want to tie to the “must-pass” debt limit in December. By broadcasting that he’ll always support a debt-limit increase, Trump effectively made Chuck Schumer president of the United States.

It works like this: Sen. Schumer declares his intention to tie a no-strings-attached DACA legalization bill to every must-pass bill Congress will consider this fall. These must-pass bills include funding for the government (failing to pass appropriations triggers a government shutdown) and now a mid-December debt-ceiling increase (failing to pass this opens the administration to false accusations of risking government default).

Schumer will tie DACA legalization and other Democrat priorities to this must-pass legislation and then Democrats will threaten to vote “no” if any conservative policies are attached. And, with Trump’s total capitulation Wednesday, Republicans’ hands will be tied, as GOP leadership refuses to risk a government shutdown.

The Democrats get everything they want, Trump will get nothing. No border wall funding. No RAISE Act. No spending cuts. Nothing.

One aide in GOP leadership described Trump’s decision as “total victory” for the Democrats.

They know that Trump hates it when someone says that he isn't in charge. Happened with Bannon, happened with Preibus, happening with Kelly. Smart on conservative outlets attacking him like this.

We have to hope that Trump doesn't change his mind because of it.

Not everything is about politics. I think they agreed on this extension for the goodness of the country in a time of an emergency. There was no way all of these things would have passed without significant political fights, and both sides knew it.

I don't like how the media is portraying it in a way that it seems the Democrats won and Trump lost. In my eyes, both won. Now both can take credit for delivering relief aid to those affected by the hurricanes.

They can reuse the headline in 2020.

This is a sensational headline meant to stir the far right base.

I agree.

Republicans are so fucking stupid

they are being hysterical, but they are right in that it's bizarre for Trump to be following the Democrats here. Even from a self-serving view, it's stupid to be alienating the Republicans who are keeping impeachment at bay.

Maybe in the end, Trump really wants to drain the swamp. He doesn't GAF.

Some of you guys are never happy. The DA will pass and you will be like "I can't be a citizen until 5 years, fuck this"
