Did Schumer Bend The Knee?

Democrats lost the shutdown war. They declared for weeks they would not back any funding bill without a bipartisan agreement to protect so-called Dreamers. As Day Three of a government shutdown dawned, Democrats folded like a cheap suit voting to reopen the government.
The White House labeled the government closure the “Schumer Shutdown” sending the Democrats into a bit of a panic.  The label stuck and the stench of fear clung to them like a skunk had sprayed them as the New York Times and the Associated Press blamed them for shuttering the government.
What did the Democrats get out of the shutdown?  Not a damned thing.  President Trump has managed to show Republicans how to show some spine and in so doing they, I strongly believe, have managed to erase some of the stigma of past shutdowns.

“Today's cave by Senate Democrats—led by weak-kneed, right-of-center Democrats—is why people don’t believe the Democratic Party stands for anything,” said Stephanie Taylor, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee. “These weak Democrats hurt the party brand for everyone and make it harder to elect Democrats everywhere in 2018.”
Oh, dear Stephanie. The Night King called for Schumer to bend the knee or he would destroy him.  Senator Schumer’s formal act of submission was a glorious sight to behold.  Crying Chuck will be treated with leniency, but there will be no trust in this lying 10 lb. blivet in a 5 lb. sack.
I tweeted this to Sen. Schumer early this morning:
And now for some comedy gold I present disgraced poodle, Debbie Wasserman-Schultz:
