Poor guys. This thing called leadership is harder than they thought.
Yeah you would think having a majority in every single branch of government would preclude blaming the opposition for their failings.
Alas...

This is the most absurd argument.
there needs to be 60 votes in the senate to pass, and republicans only have 51.
So according to you, if the 49 democrats decide to not show up to work the rest of the year, it still the republicans fault, because they have the majority?
Its so disingenuous and dumb.
The republicans are voting for this; they have put forth a bill of all things that democrats want.
If democrats chose not to vote fopr it, its not the republicans fault because they have the majority.

It will be interesting to see what happens when the Democrats non-working base don’t get their Government checks thanks to the liberals in Congress. If you take away their Government subsidized beer and cigarettes things will get nasty real fast for the Dems.
No because the main stream media is a branch of the democratic party, and they will convince people this is the republicans fault.
The dems are voting against a budget that they support everything in, because they want to add a non related ussue, and the main stream media will someone try to twist this to being trumps fault.
Fox is um kinda main stream media, you want to call that Democrat?

Stop lying.
You do not need 60 votes to pass all legislation.
That was simply how the Senate worked while Obama was president because of Republicans.

I say the Democrats do NOT want a DACA deal.
If a DACA deal passes Congress, that means most Republicans voted "Yes" to DACA and Trump would sign it into law.
Very bad for Democrats to have Republicans support anything.
Democrats are classic "Users" and manipulators at Citizen expense.

Hmm ok I should have said overwhelmingly they are a democrat mouth piece.
You know the stats that show over 90% of MSM coverage has been negative for trump.
Poll: Nearly 9 in 10 want DACA recipients to stay in US
MOST AMERICANS SUPPORT DACA, BUT OPPOSE BORDER WALL – CBS NEWS POLL
Poll: Vast majority of Americans support DACA

They need 60 for this vote.
Again you k now thiss, but like your MSM friends, need to lie and deflect because there is no possible justification for dems voting against a budget that contains only things they want.

Well soon see how many Democrats in the Senate vote "Yes".
Given that not even 50 Republicans have indicated they would vote yes, maybe you cheerleaders should be introspective.

The Senate majority is not currently 60% like it was for a time in the 2009-2010 Congress.
Why didn't Democrats pass all this then when they had all the easy votes?
And they still wonder why they lose elections.
