General Discussion

There has been a constant chorus here - for years! - insisting at each debacle that "This is just the way it should have gone because reasons." NONE of this is the way it should have gone. November SNAP was going out, and we were on the verge of restoring it permanently.

And if we give in again in December, which we probably will, that will make things that much worse. I don't even want to think about what we will lose then.

37 Democrats DID NOT surrender. Yes, it's likely some of them were in on this scheme. And more than likely that Schumer engineered it. But I will go to my grave thinking that the majority of them are with us.

We need to face reality. This surrender was absurd.

We have the people. We need to change the leadership.
