Subject: Re: Democrat Surrender Monkeys
On the contrary, the Democrats got plenty as a result of this "deal" to end the shutdown.

They got valuable information. That blackmailing the American people is not a good negotiating strategy, especially when your blackmail scheme tends to negatively and immediately impact your own political constituencies more so than the constituencies of the other political party.

While they received valuable information, are they smart enough to actually learn the correct lesson from it?

Judging by many of the absolutely delusional takes on this message board, perhaps not.

The bottom line is that the Senate voted to end the shutdown by a LANDSLIDE. 60%-40%. That's a big WIN for the American people. It is a big loss for King Schumer and all those Democrats who deliberately tried to inflict unnecessary pain on the American people for political "leverage."

Do you believe in Democracy? If so, 60%-40% is telling you something--and it isn't that the 60% are TRUMP MAGA NAZIS
