LOL... and the goalposts get moved, yet again.
Schumer did not not prevent the shutdown, because he caused it.
And yes, he could have prevented it, too.
I don't remember anyone bringing anything up about Schumer PREVENTING the shutdown.
Was it you?
Figures. THAT shit doesn't count, because you're just making shit up and using that shit to make it seem as though we said it, when
we didn't. THAT'S how a psycho faggot behaves in a debate.
THAT was never a question OR a statement made by me, so why introduce yet another non-sequitur, faggot?
Your first non-sequitur was what 'power' do Democrats have to shut down the government, since they aren't 'in power'"?
No one said they had the power to shut down the government. The discussion is how they CAUSED it, you fucking moron.
Why do you keep changing the terms of the discussion?
Because you're losing, and narcissistic and ego-maniacal faggots can't stand to lose.
You really aren't bright enough to see how your own stupidity and games and past posts you can't seem to remember, bite you in the
ass, faggot Loser.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
