His answer was no—that Senate Democrats should have taken a stand against Donald Trump's lawlessness and withheld the votes Republicans needed to keep the government from shutting down. Even one single Democrat could have made more of a stink and slowed things down.
The article from Slate discusses Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer's efforts to avoid a government shutdown as the deadline for funding approaches. Schumer has been pushing for a bipartisan agreement to extend funding for various government agencies, highlighting the potential negative impacts of a shutdown on federal workers, public services, and the economy. He has criticized House Republicans for their demands, which he describes as extreme and likely to lead to a shutdown. Schumer has been working closely with the White House and moderate Republicans to find a solution, emphasizing the need for a continuing resolution to keep the government running while negotiations continue. The article also notes the internal pressures within the Republican party, with some members advocating for significant spending cuts and policy riders, complicating the path to a straightforward funding agreement.
