This will absolutely happen. Or senate dems will just cave outright if @schumer.senate.gov is still minority leader.

Dems Reward the Hostage-Taker
Perhaps ending the shutdown was the responsible thing to do. But by caving, Democrats risk legitimizing Trump’s maximum-pain shutdown tactics.

Schumer’s leadership potentially stands on uncertain ground amid the shutdown and criticism from members within his own party.

I think at this point we have to consider that senate democrats screwing over the rest of the party and the country is by design.

There are 1,700 ballots that need signature confirmation. That is enough to change the election.

Go. Check. Your. Ballot.

The Democratic Party does not understand the absolute shitstorm that is about to hit them in Nov 2026. It’s going to make the Tea Party purge of the Republican Party look like child’s play.

100% this.
If you’ve got a Senate Democrat who is not calling for new leadership, they’re part of the problem.

We should no longer trust Senate Dems who decline to come out against the leadership that led us here. Until proven otherwise, we should assume they were in on the game to fool their own supporters.

Because this is a brand-destroying action by Senate Dems.
Interesting that NY gov Kathy Hochul felt compelled to put out a statement against Dems' deal to end the shutdown

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run.

We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader.

If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇
Democratic leaders have failed us again. It's time to get new leaders.
After yet another capitulation by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats, it's clear we need new leadership capable of mounting a serious opposition to Trump's authoritarian regime. We're launching our la...

Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The senate dems betrayal after so many times/years is now looking pretty purposeful now.

I came to this same conclusion about 8 months ago. Whenever I would see a Dem voting for fascist interests, I checked AIPAC tracker and every single time they were a recipient of significant AIPAC donations. They are playing for the GOP who is playing for Netanyahu and Putin.

#BoycottActBlue until Democratic leadership is changed. This is a caucus failure. Dem Senators must not cover for the cavers. Rebuke the cavers and #BoycottActBlue until leadership is changed (DSCC, Minority Leader, Minority Whip).

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)

They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.

The Senate Democrats!
