Even if the right move was “give up and do what the Republicans want,” they still did a terrible job. House Democrats held the line and stuck their necks out, only to get blindsided, and Schumer shouldn’t have signaled that there’d be a fight right before he caved. The left hand doesn’t know what the right hand is doing, and only a handful of people in the party seem to even be trying to do anything.
I can agree with the second part but the first part is just a phrasing to make it sound bad. I mean the move to use the republicans blunder against them sounds a lot better. I don’t really know what internal talk went with the democrats but I would not be surprised if it was somewhat like what we see online but with the membership with some saying we can’t go with anything they do on principle and others saying wait a second doing that will be overall worse.
