I don’t understand how Schumer coming out in opposition was a sign that the bill would pass.
How is that reasoning possible?
Because Schumer wants to be majority leader. He could never get that to job if he voted and that vote helped defeat a Dem President. Him voting against meant to me that the fix was in...the vote itself would be meaningless because enough other Dems would be stuck with Oama, but Schumer could say to his high Jewish population constituents that he voted against Iran and for Israel.
Understand that Schumer is a typical political animal, only more so. He cares only about Schumer.
