PR Fallout of the Schumer Surrender: The Establishment’s Last Gasp



Schumer spends a lot of time wining-and-dining Democratic donors. He has a keen ear for the establishment wing — hell, after Biden’s exodus and Pelosi’s bone-breaking tumble, Schumer is the establishment wing! So, we can safely conclude that his sudden surrender on the shutdown was pushed and promoted by the Democratic Party bigwigs — those ultra-wealthy donors who dominated the Donkeys during the Biden years.

But it came at a very high cost: The Democratic establishment just spent the last of their political capital.

The Republican Party and the Democratic Party have much in common. In addition to being corrupt, slow-moving, and insular, both parties’ bases always think the exact same thing: “Their party is evil! Our party is just stupid! If only our party was smarter, we’d win every election!”

It’s a simple, digestible message: We’re good. They’re bad. So, if/when we lose, it’s OBVIOUSLY because they were too devious — and our own leaders just weren’t smart enough to stop ‘em.

Which is why the liberal base isn’t reacting to Schumer’s surrender with tacit approval. They’re not thinking, “Okay, long-term, Schumer’s decision positions us better for the midterms. Of all the issues we could ‘own’ in 2026, claiming the ‘more government shutdown!’ mantle would’ve been about as off-target as you could get.”

Nah.

They’re thinking, “Trump tricked stupid Schumer.”

And it’s being spun — in liberal circles! — as another Democratic defeat:

Liberals including Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.), Jeff Merkley (D-Ore.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) are spearheading calls to vote against the House proposal, which would make cuts to nondefense programs and wouldn’t prevent Trump from shifting around funding to favor his own priorities.
Warren argued the House bill would give President Trump and Elon Musk “a blank check to spend your taxpayer money however they want.”
“We need to push back,” she declared.
Sanders said it would “literally take food out of the mouths of hungry children, take health care away from seniors, and give a huge tax break to the wealthiest people on the planet.”
Merkley said the “House Republican plan is horrific.”
“And we should be, Hell No.”

Democrat Sen. Adam Schiff is being dishonest again. That's a real shocker, right? No, not really but it's worth noting just to point out how disingenuous this guy can be.

After The Atlantic's Jeffery Goldberg published stories about being on a Signal chat where Defense Department plans were being discussed, Schiff served up this headline while clearly hoping everybody would think it's an "apples to apples" comparison:

"Adam Schiff conspired with CIA John Brennan to overthrow the United States government in 2016 and then, right out of a small room in Langley, covertly conspired with CIA Director Mike Pompeo to overthrow the sitting President of the United States @realDonaldTrump DECLASSIFY THE CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE AGENCY and YOU WILL FIND @SenAdamSchiff IN A MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON WHERE HE BELONGS."
