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.

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

Simple as that.

I’m encouraged by the backbone the republicans are suddenly showing. I thank President Trump for that. He’s teaching them how its done!

I can’t believe that little Chucky was on the tube this morning saying that “Americans and THE WORLD are calling this the Trump shutdown.” I think the boy needs to be piss-tested. He acts like he’s been smoking something.

I just did my bit!

I searched “Schumer Shutdown” on the following:

Duck Duck Go
Google
Bing
Yahoo
eBay
Amazon
You Tube

Every one, (including ebay!) had tons of “Schumer Shutdown” products, videos, articles, and images! LOL!

“That doesn’t mean Schumer can’t recover the narrative, though. He is scheduled to receive a wave of media-driven support on the Sunday news programs that intend to push back against the power of the Trump tweets. The promise of that push-back is the only reason Schumer has not already capitulated.”

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

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.

As for the women’s march, Trump pretty much stole their thunder with this ‘gracious’ tweet:

Beautiful weather all over our great country, a perfect day for all Women to March. Get out there now to celebrate the historic milestones and unprecedented economic success and wealth creation that has taken place over the last 12 months. Lowest female unemployment in 18 years!

I was rather shocked, I was channel surfing and saw some Dem on CNN being grilled by some reporterette who was asking him how he can call it the "Trump Shutdown" with a straight face when a bill was never even sent to Trump's desk and how anybody that is paying attention knows that it was democrats who voted almost unanimously against the Continuing Resolution to fund the government.

Since we ALL know CNN is pro-democrat and anti-Trump, this suggests to me that they are essentially sending up the warning flag, saying, "Democrats, you better end this before the work week begins and people really start paying attention, because our internal polling ain't going your way."

Did several searches on Google for “Schumer Shutdown” to keep the trend going.

“Trump shutdown doesn’t work” because it was the SHUMER SHUTDOWN over illegal aliens and the government is closed until the Dims totally drop that. There is no face saving here. We want them humiliated and routed. We have them cornered and I say NO MERCY!! Drop the illegal aliens crap and say you are sorry!!
