I have to say: Chuck Schumer is a weak man and a fool. This was the one cudgel Dems had. Now it's up to the courts which we new from the beginning were at best going to slow some things down. There's 18 hours left to somehow bring additional pressure to bear. It will be really hard to do that.

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

Schumer appears to be speaking only for himself, yet his words provide cover for others who are unwilling to take a stand. In our hour of need, they seem to have abandoned us—surrendering their leverage without cause and failing to utilize even the limited power they hold.

DONT BELIEVE IT: Okay moments like this it’s totally fog of war. Not only ‘you don’t know what they really think’ but ‘THEY may not know what they really think’. But I’m picking up enough to tell me that this statement from Schumer may not be on the level.
