Total and Complete
Surrender: Democrats’ Schumer Shutdown Cave Endangers Leftists, Emboldens GOP
Walking into Midterm Elections
by Matthew Boyle 22 Jan 2018Washington, D.C.
Congressional Democrats on Monday, the third day of the government
shutdown, completely caved to the Republicans—getting absolutely nothing
policy-wise for their efforts.
And perhaps they jeopardized their midterm election
chances in a volatile voting year, hurting House and Senate Democrats’ chances
alike. But it also provides Republicans with a much-needed overarching theme
for the midterm elections, which is that Democrats favor illegal aliens over
Americans, while Republicans put Americans first. Party-wide, top Republicans
on Monday were fired up after the Schumer Shutdown ended in absolute utter
failure for the Democrats.
“Millions of Americans have watched Democrats resist and
obstruct President Trump at every move and they watched Democrats put politics
above people by voting for this shutdown,” Ronna Romney McDaniel, the
chairwoman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), told Breitbart News on
Monday afternoon. “For the Democrats who chose once again to jeopardize
government funding, November is going to be a wake-up call.”
President Donald Trump and Republicans on both sides of
Capitol Hill are jubilant after this complete and total victory, as Democrats
offered unconditional surrender just three days into their ill-advised
government shutdown strategy to try to push for an amnesty for illegal alien
recipients of the expiring DACA program. As the government reopens Monday
evening after the Senate first passed a government funding bill followed by the
House, Republicans party-wide are salivating at the political opportunities
that lay ahead in November of this year.
“The pathetic Schumer shutdown has made one thing crystal
clear to all Americans heading into the 2018 midterms elections,” Dave Bossie,
the president of Citizens United and former deputy campaign manager for
President Trump’s 2016 general election campaign, told Breitbart News. “The
Democrats’ number one priority is to protect 700,000 illegal aliens ahead of
300 million Americans. President Trump is fighting for all Americans first. His
priority is making sure that 300 million Americans are far more wealthy, far
more secure, and far more optimistic about the future than they were during
Barack Obama’s failed presidency and Nancy Pelosi’s failed tenure as House
Speaker.”
Democrats were on a roll before this shutdown, barreling
toward what appeared to be an inevitable shot at taking back the majority in
the House of Representatives in November’s midterm elections–until they shut
the government down on Friday night.
They had won Virginia’s contested gubernatorial election
in a blowout in November, then won a special election for U.S. Senate in
Alabama. Then they won a statehouse race in Wisconsin before shutting the
federal government down–a battle they have by all accounts now lost badly.
Now, Democrats have emerged walking into the midterms
with serious brand damage–as they are now known as the party of illegal aliens
over American citizens in this debate, particularly as Republicans frame
themselves as the defenders of America and Americans first. But more
importantly, the Democrats have cast themselves as the party of chaos,
instability, and uncertainty while Republicans can frame themselves as the
party of certainty, steadiness, and stability.
Ed Rollins, the co-chairman of the Great America Alliance
which is backing many GOP candidates nationwide this year, said in an
interview:
The premise of [Democrats] shutting the government down
was they tried to add legislation that wasn’t there, and they just didn’t have
the votes for it in the House and the Senate—and under this circumstance they
look foolish. They totally inconvenienced the country. They basically added to
the disgust the country has—you got an 18 or 16 percent approval rating in
Congress and this behavior continues to go on.
If you want DACA, you ought to put a bill through and see
if they can pass it. If you want immigration reform, put a bill up and see if
you can pass it. But at the end of the day they can’t do that. But they just
delayed this for a couple weeks here, and I think to a certain extent the
longer this goes on the more damage it does to them.
As such, the National Republican Congressional Committee
(NRCC)—the official party arm charged with winning House elections and holding
the majority for Republicans—is much more confident in their mission moving
into this year.
“Democrats in the House and Senate put soldiers,
children, and seniors at risk shutting down the government over a deadline that
is still over a month away,” John Rogers, the NRCC’s executive director, told
Breitbart News. “Worse is that the illegal immigration debate has absolutely
nothing to do with funding the government. It’s sad that they are playing
politics with people’s lives, and I think voters will see through this
political ploy.”
The Schumer Shutdown is perhaps even more beneficial
to efforts by Republicans to unseat Senate Democrats in the midterm elections
and embolden their U.S. Senate majority. The GOP already had a favorable map walking
into the midterms, and moderate Democratic senators like Joe Manchin in West
Virginia, Heidi Heitkamp in North Dakota, Claire McCaskill in Missouri, and Joe
Donnelly in Indiana were already feeling the pain ahead of their re-election
bids this year in states in which Trump trounced Democrat Hillary Rodham
Clinton in 2016’s presidential campaign.
All of those four red state Democrats voted against the
government shutdown on Friday night, joined by newly elected Sen. Doug Jones
(D-AL)—who just won a special election in Alabama at the end of last year amid
all the troubles that came out about conservative GOP nominee Roy Moore. But
other Democratic senators up for re-election in Trump victory states–like
Florida’s Bill Nelson or Wisconsin’s Tammy Baldwin or Montana’s Jon Tester
or Michigan’s Debbie Stabenow or Pennsylvania’s Bob Casey–felt serious pain for
nearly 72 hours as they saw their votes to shut down the federal
government front and center in the national news—and empowered their 2018 GOP opponents.
“There’s simply no spinning this if you’re Caving Chuck,”
Jason Miller, who was communications director for President Trump’s 2016 White
House campaign, told Breitbart News. “The Schumer Shutdown is going to cost
several Senate Democrats their jobs come November.”
The Great America Alliance, which Rollins chairs, has
endorsed many of these red state Senate Democrats’ GOP opponents. “They are,”
in a real bad spot after this walking into the midterms, Rollins said of those
Democrats. “I’ve never believed you knock anyone out with one punch, but I
think it’s a pattern. Each and every one of these vulnerable Democrats has a
pattern. There’s a very clear line between what Republicans want and what
Democrats want. Republicans want less government and want you to keep more of
your taxes and immigration that takes the right people in and keeps out the
wrong type of people. Democrats want to spent money on everything and want a
policy that lets anyone and everyone come in—an amnesty policy. Overall, that’s
part of the formulation of who they are—and they do this not just on one vote
but on all sorts of a series of votes.”

Exclusive: The Truth About ‘La Raza’

The nation’s television
screens many days recently have been filled with scenes of huge crowds carrying
the colorful green and red flag of Mexico viewers could well have thought it
was a national holiday in Mexico City.
It was instead, downtown Los Angeles, Calif., although the scene was recreated in numerous other
cities around the country with substantial Mexican populations. Hordes of
Mexican expatriates, many here
illegally, were protesting the very U.S. immigration laws they were violating
with impunity. They found it offensive and a
violation of their rights that the U.S. dared to have immigration laws to begin
with.
Los Angeles Mayor Antonio
Villaraigosa mounted the podium, but any hopes that he would quiet the crowds
and defend the law were soon dashed. Villaraigosa, himself, has spent a
lifetime opposing U.S. immigration law.
For law-abiding Americans
without knowledge of the dark side of our current illegal immigration crisis,
all this is unfathomable. For those who know the truth about the “La Raza” movement, these demonstrations were a prophecy
fulfilled.
Eric Garcetti is
the Los Angeles (CA) mayor, and a
trustee at the Museum of Contemporary
Art in Los Angeles.
Jeffrey Soros is
the president emeritus for the Museum of
Contemporary Art in Los Angeles, and George
Soros’s nephew.
