That is nothing, a few days of wheel barrels of negative mail and calls to staff at their office will have piss running down the legs. Look for Charles Ellis "Chuck" Schumer to be crying on television soon.

If Pelosi hasn't predicted dead bodies lying in the streets of America as a result of the shutdown, we have nothing to worry about.

Gov't shutdown, just like a jockey strike at Aqueduct, is nothing more than hype that gets resolved sooner rather than later. In the meantime, life goes on as usual.
Thank me very much.

I'd bet that the vast majority of the comments coming into Schumer's office from his constituents are very supportive of his position.

I agree that they are positive. Schumer has the advantage of knowing he will never be in the White House other than as a Senator. What's to lose?

Hey Dan, explain to me why DACA should be in any budget. Immigration has nothing to do with it. But I will play along. The Republicans should have inserted DACA into the bill along with 40 billion for the wall, an end to chain migration, an end to the visa lottery system, and funding for 10,000 more border agents. Would that have met with your approval. The budget and immigration could have all been done at the same time.

The democrats, in their most hypocritical stance, would have wrung their hands asking how we were going to pay for all that.

If the country is closed, then ALL visitors must leave.
Just like Disneyland.

The response by constituents of Schumer to his office is not important.
The heat of the Congress members who get letters and phone calls is important and the focus I was assigning, the tears in Schumer's eyes will be from his leadership falling apart when those under him vote and get out of the kitchen that has the heat. Now that I clarified that your response might be on a different aspect to rebuke something else? It is time to change the rules in the Senate and cut off their balls soon.

The Democrats in the Senate are 100% behind Schumer. How is his leadership position going to fall apart?
