(7,431 posts)Whoops! Did I violate "the code"?
Or is he really "sometimes just an idiot", and can readers just take it at face value?
No, he's not the only one. We all act like idiots on occasion.
... So, after reading some of the other posts by DUers, I can see how Schumer is just playing tag. Others have pointed out that the offer has some legs and is nary a pimple on the monstrous budget. What I find offensive is that, at this time and place, Schumer's mention of anything relating to the border wall is an insensitive and emotionally evocative event that APPEARS to be a capitulation to Trumpy's madness, which is what nobody really needs to do. Trumpy is being exposed as a vacuous fraud time and again. There is no need to legitimize anything he proposes. He's in serious political trouble, and there shouldn't be anything happening from the Democratic side that lends him credibility.
