Schumer was actually right to do this. IMAGINE if the gov was entirely shut down right now. They would have accelerated their authoritarian grab, dems blames for shutting down the gov, everyone fired, no Repubs able to vote against (finally) the tariffs. Let them own this CR

This is why we can't miss the forest for the trees. And yes OF COURSE the CR is horrible, but we need to be strategic for the moment we are in. Having closed the gov right now would have accelerated the authoritarian takeover.

I love Meidas but they were wrong here.
