Schumer got flayed for not shutting the government down last time (and had his book tour ruined) and is now getting flayed for not keeping his caucus together long enough. Guy can't win.
He's frankly just past his prime, doesn't really get this moment. Schumer was an absolute wunderkind in his understanding of the traditional media, and how Democrats could operate within it. He could tell you what was going to be on the front page of every major paper the day before, hell, sometimes several days before.
Nobody gaf what's on the front page of the paper anymore and Schumer is just lost at sea.
MSNBC panel tears into Chuck Schumer:
One guest flat-out declared, “This is the end of Chuck Schumer as we go forward.”
They slammed him for losing the ACA fight that 80% of Americans agree on.
“How do you lose that negotiation after you just won an election.”
