Chuck Schumer met with Trump and Republican leaders and is now asking Trump to reign in the radicals in the GOP so that they align with Trumps more moderate stance on the budget. https://thehill.com/homenews/senate/5527839-schumer-trump-gop-health-care-funding-bill/ Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) said a rift is emerging between President Trump and GOP leaders in Congress about whether to use a short-term government funding bill to prevent health insurance premiums from soaring next year because of the expiration of enhanced subsidies at the end of this year. “The particular focus was on health care. When we made these arguments it was clear there was a division or possible division between the president and the two Republican leaders,” Schumer said, referring to Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.). Schumer met with Trump, Thune, Johnson and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) at the White House on Monday afternoon to discuss government funding, which is set to expire at 11:59 p.m. Tuesday. Democrats are demanding an extension of the enhanced health insurance subsidies, as well as other health care provisions, in exchange for their votes to keep the government open. Schumer said the GOP leaders “wanted to kick the health care problem down the road.” But the Democratic leader said Trump seemed more sympathetic to the suffering of ordinary Americans who will see their premiums rise and may lose access to health care. “There was a real division because when we talked to the president about the problems in health care and mentioned to him a woman I had met who was crying because she said her daughter was losing her health care, her daughter has cancer. … He was not aware that Americans would pay, so many Americans, tens of millions of Americans, would pay huge increases in their health care bills because of the ACA expiring in December,” Schumer said, referring to Trump.

“He was not aware that the real effect of that starts Oct. 1, not Dec. 31,” Schumer added.Thune and Johnson have both said they aim to address the expiring health care premium tax credits later this year, but they are against attaching them to the funding stopgap that needs to pass by the Sept. 30 deadline.Schumer said he and Jeffries emphasized both the impending expiration of health care subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and the problem of pocket rescissions and impoundments, which they view as attempts to usurp congressional spending authority.Thune disputed Schumer’s characterization of the meeting. Schumer said he urged Trump to prevail on Republican leaders to add to the seven-week government funding stopgap measure language to extend the ACA subsidies and address pocket rescissions.“We told the president he can solve the problem by demanding of the legislative leaders, of Thune and of Johnson, that we start off with the ACA — just take our provision on the ACA and put it in their bill,” he said of the House-passed continuing resolution.“It’s in the president’s hands whether to avoid a shutdown or not. He has to convince the Republican leaders. Now we know why they didn’t want him to meet with us,” Schumer added. “I think Schumer is desperate to change the subject. I don’t know what he’s talking about. I mean we’re all on the same page,” Thune said as he walked into his office after a vote late Monday afternoo

>Republicans earlier this year: "We don't want anything from you, Democrats" >Democrats earlier this year: "Okay, its all on you then">Republicans now: "Waaaaaaah Dems, please pass our bill or the government will shut down" >Democrats now: "Okay, we want this then" >Republicans now: "Nooooo, do it for free" >Democrats now: "Its all on you then"

Asking a Radical to stop a Radical MAKES NO SENSE!!!

Schumer is the NY version of Lindsay Graham.

Democrats are cucks. They want billions for healthcare for immigrants. They're conveniently leaving this part out when the media frames this as the GOP being the radical ones

Why?

Anon10/01/25, 14:32No.1443794

Uh oh Schumer sent a sternly worded letter. These fucking third way Democrat leaders are stuck in the Clinton era and need to fucking wake up before the country goes off a cliff.

Why did Democrats vote to shutdown the government? They did the same thing last government shutdown

Anon10/01/25, 19:47No.1443887

Oh right, I forgot we already spent that money slashing taxes for the rich. Obviously that's much more important than healthcare.Wait... wasn't I also told that slashing taxes for the rich would reduce the deficit? You keep telling me to educate myself, but listening to what Donald says just makes me more confused.

Anon10/01/25, 20:54No.1443917

Republicans want to cut benefits for the poor to give benefits to the rich. Democrats don't. That's kind of all there is to it. I don't know what else there is to say.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/federal-government-shutdown-looms-thousands-of-workers-set-to-be-furloughed-or-laid-off >The 55-45 vote on the bill to extend federal funding for seven weeks fell short of the 60 needed to end a filibuster and pass the legislation.Why did Democrats literally shut down the government with their fillabustering? The resolution had enough votes to pass (unlike the Democrat one) but it didn't have enough votes to make the Democrat children shut the hell up and allow the government to be funded

Anon10/01/25, 21:20No.1443923

So, keep that in mind. The spending bill had enough votes to legally pass It did not have enough votes to override Democrats desire to grandstand and shutdown the government by blocking cloture.

Why is the AMERICAN senate observing a JEWISH holiday? They don't even care about hiding it anymore!

>w-well if democrats had just voted for this bill then- Then they wouldn't be doing their job. Senators are there to represent and fight for their constituents. What are you even saying here? The dems should have just agreed to everything the repubs were doing and got nothing for it? Why would they do that? Why would anyone expect them to do that? That's not how congress works. Meanwhile, Trump has told his party, and it is his party, to just not negotiate with the democrats. Which is insane, because negotiating on bills IS how congress works. One side wants this, the other wants that, you go back and forth until you reach a compromise. Trump just tells congress to become non-functional, yet it's the democrat's fault because they won't agree with him? Seriously, what is the logic here?

How about reigning in on the Rightwing fascists (MAGA) that are contemptuous of members of the Republican Party that are willing to compromise with the Democrats?
