The Senate Democratic leader said Trump’s decision to accept a meeting shows Republicans “feel the heat.”
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Sunday that Congress can prevent a government shutdown when money expires this week, but only if Republicans engage in a “serious negotiation.”
In an interview on NBC News’ “Meet the Press,” Schumer told moderator Kristen Welker that he called Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., on Friday to encourage a meeting, which the White House accepted on Saturday evening.
Schumer said reaching a deal “depends on the Republicans.”
Yeah, that’s exact what’s going to happen…
If you can’t see that coming you shouldn’t have car keys, let alone a senate leadership position
Still gotta go and make a good faith effort. Otherwise your criticism after the fact isn’t going to carry much weight.
Ok Charlie Brown…
I’m sure any day now Lucy will for real hold the football
Just keep giving them the benefit of the doubt that it’s a good faith effort, was way better than doing something with a chance of working.
It’s almost like you’re responding to someone else’s comment.
How in the absolute fuck do you not see the connection between:
Charlie Brown getting tricked into trying to kick the football for decades
Neoliberals thinking trump will negotiate in good faith
To you, there’s just no fucking connections, to the point where you legitimately thought I replied to the wrong comment?
Where did I say Trump would negotiate in good faith?
Do you have lead poisoning?
Yes because this is literally the first time that will have been tried. There’s totally not a long and well-documented track record of good faith efforts already that have been ignored, slapped away, mocked, and used for back stabbing.
This time, though, it will totally show them.
