How bad was the defeat Senate Democrat leader Chuck Schumer suffered in the spending bill battle?
So bad that the left-wing media can’t even spin it as a victory.
“Schumer, Facing Backlash From Democrats, Says He’ll Take ‘the Bullets,’ ” one New York Times headline reads.
“[Alexandria] Ocasio-Cortez [below, near right] Lashes Out at Schumer Over His Support for G.O.P. Measure,” says another.
Axios reports that “House Dems go into ‘complete meltdown’ as Schumer folds.”
President Trump’s march through the Washington swamp is producing enormous changes each day, and we can add to the list his reversal of the usual dynamic of shutdown politics.
