Schumer says U.S. budget deal doable if Trump stays out of it
2017-04-24
[Al Ahram] Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer
Senator-for-life from New York, renowned for his love of standing in front of cameras. Schumer has been a professional politician since 1975, when disco was in flower. Senate minority leader as of 2017.
said on Sunday he believes politicians could reach a short-term U.S. budget deal by Friday if President Donald Trump
...New York real estate developer, described by Dems as illiterate, racist, misogynistic, and what ever other unpleasant descriptions they can think of, elected by the rest of us as 45th President of the United States...
did not meddle in their talks with "poison pill" demands like funding for a border wall.

"I am hopeful that we can get a budget done," Schumer said at a news conference. "The only fly in the ointment is that the president is being a little heavy-handed, and mixing in and asking for things such as the (border) wall."

"So we'd ask him to let us do our work, not throw in some last-minute poison pills that could undo it and we could get this done."

#5   If Schumer gets in the way then shut the government down and let everybody know that he is the reason why. Maybe Trump will consider giving him a Jimmy Hoffa concrete sarcophagus in the Wall. Schumer is an obstructionist putz who is every bit as bad as Harry Reid; maybe worse.

#3  So this ass says that if the president stays out of the budget, they can work a deal. Like robing banks is easy if the police stay away. This is the presidents budget, like him or not. Schumer is an ass.

#2  Trump was elected to build a wall. If Schumer gets in the way then shut the government down and let everybody know that he is the reason why. Call his bluff.
