Government Shut Down Update: SCHUMER JUST BLINKED
DC Whispers ^ | Jan.20, 2018 | DC Whispers Staff

Posted on 01/21/2018 8:19:32 AM PST by libstripper

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer gave a tepid, droning, and utterly unconvincing performance on the Senate floor this morning where he repeatedly inserted the phrase, “the Trump shutdown.” The problem for Mr. Schumer is two-fold: First, very few watched his speech. Yes, CNN, MSNBC, etc., will replay it a few times, but none of those replays will generate as much interest as a single Trump tweet. Second, and this is even more critical, the phrase “Schumer Shutdown” is trending throughout Social Media circles – a development which has Mr. Schumer’s staff increasingly troubled. He doesn’t want to be the one shackled with the blame for the shutdown – the Establishment Media was supposed to make certain that was done to President Trump.

When Americans realize democrats are standing WITH illegals and AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE in this scam - it’ll be a nail in the vile democrat’s coffin.

WE STAND WITH AMERICANS - DEMOCRATS STAND WITH ILLEGALS.

Schumer is starting to see that... No deal Schumer unless we get the wall AND an end to chain illegal immigration. AND an end to this illegal insanity.

We don’t allow the bank robber’s children to keep the loot... AND bring in their family members to split what was left in the bank...

I was thinking the same thing. It’s like they’re between a rock and a hard place and they’ve decided to follow Trump’s lead. Hopefully they’re feeling what it’s like to have the power of the people behind them and are able to keep up the momentum.

Do reptiles blink?
A slow closure, at best, but is that considered a blink.
And did Schumer require banking on a rock during the recent D.C. cold spell? (Caused of course by global warming)>

Thanks for the Google tip. I put #schumershutdown in every tweet I send out whether it is political or not. I retweet, I like etc. everything I can to to flood social media with #schumershutdown. Chuckie thinks he is so smart will he has led the democratic lemmings down not one, tax reductions, and now a second, don't fund children's health care, canyon of no survival. The democrats are in a deep canyon and the people are on the ridges throwing boulders down on them. Oh did I mention that the open end of the canyon is now afire and there is no safe retreat? I want to thank the native Americans for showing us how to kill stupid armies of lemmings.

It isn’t Trump’s job to fund the government.

Oui, Mister Schumer seems confused about the "three pillars of government" thingy, n'est ce pas?

The Dems own the shutdown.

Unfortunately for Schumer(Shutdown), Mick Mulvaney was the primary Trump admin person out there on the Sunday news programs explaining WHY it IS the Schumer Shutdown and why the Dems are responsible. Mulvaney is the A10 tank killer on all things budget/CFPB. He did very well on the Sunday shows so I don’t think Schumer is going to get the ‘push back’ he was hoping for.

Mulvaney was a great Trump pick!

>>Just type Schumer Shutdown and hit enter.<<

I hope that reversing those words will become a mantra that will destroy that despicable POS.

SHUTDOWN SCHUMER — never let it be forgotten!

“Americans and THE WORLD are calling this the Trump shutdown.”

A telling phrase. The RATS are always going on and on about “the world”, as if that should matter.
