Eh. I get it though. It's like saying "why shut it down?" and then saying "Wtf? You shut it down for 2 days and did nothing with it?"

If you;re going to do something that big, follow through. Leverage it. Wtf was the shut down for exactly? To keep ppl at work through the weekend? Big whoop. Back to square one.

But I'm not confident that the Dems will follow through.
Or what?

In fucking blue as balls New York? Guy isn't up for re-election until 2022 anyways.


Which seat is he so concerned about? His party leadership seat? Good, after this flop he should be scared.

Are you talking about 10 years ago? What is your brilliant suggestion? I'm dying to know.

Keep the government closed until State of the Union. Democrat strategists are absolutely incompetent. No wonder HRC lost so bad.

Seriously. Fucking blue wave my ass, we'll have a fucking red tide in 2018 that sweeps all the red/purple states and republicans will walk out with a supermajority.

We need a new left-wing party. Democrats are beyond any repair.

Calm the fuck down people.. We're getting something.. They didn't do all this show just to say "Well.. we tried, sorry dreamers".

Trump is asking for 10 different things, we're only asking for one. So for them to get any of the things on their list, they have to give us the one thing on ours.

Because Obama wasted all of his political capital repealing "don't ask don't tell." He sold out the much larger Latino population over gays. Fuck him
