Of course. As I mentioned in another thread where a different union advocated for the Dems to unshut the government, the Schumer Shutdown was and is terrible as a political strategy. And obviously so.

Even AOC is trying to distance herself from it, claiming that Schumer's obvious political motivation of being fearful of AOC in a primary is simply a Republican delusion. She wants to be able to deny being any part of it, even if only in Schumer's or the Republican Party's imagination.

Multiple Dem leaders are on record as advocating the Schumer Shutdown as a form of political "leverage." Against whom? Against their own constituencies. Talk about shooting yourselves in both feet...
