Dope1 and albaby, a cogent analysis of what happens if we get to November 21 and it has to start all over again in the House.
Here's the problem: Since the King Schumer/Dem Senate King strategy was not to achieve a realistic goal, but rather, to assert political "leverage" in order to score political points against Trump and the Congressional Republicans, it is not going to matter WHAT the new CR after Nov. 21 does, or does not, contain.
King Schumer will instruct his caucus in the Senate not to provide the votes the Senate Republicans need to get to 60. It does not matter what is or isn't in the C.R.
King Schumer's strategy wasn't to actually solve a resource allocation dispute. It was to CREATE an impasse which could be blamed on the Republicans and Trump for political advantage.
So far, judging by the recent election results and the public opinion polling, King Schumer's strategy has worked beautifully.
You guys are both very intelligent and perceptive. Do you not realize that (especially with the election of Mamdani) Schumer will NEVER provide 60 votes?
