Summary
Jon Stewart slammed Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for supporting a GOP funding bill after initially opposing it.
On The Daily Show, Stewart mocked Schumer for surrendering leverage without gaining anything in return, joking that he “got some cheese.”
He criticized Schumer’s strategy of waiting for Trump’s popularity to drop, calling it delusional.
Stewart argued Democrats avoid proposing real alternatives by pretending Republicans will compromise. He warned their approval rating is dangerously low, making their approach politically ineffective and out of touch.
The letter pretty clearly says “I am a member of the Democrat Party”.
Show me a letter from Vichy Democrats that says “I am a member of the Republican Party.” Show me where Republicans put any Democrat in Senate leadership or gave them chair of a Committee.

Democrats sign bills every day saying they are siding with the Republicans and agree with their policies.
That is an incredibly dumb argument. Every single Republican in office has also signed onto bills aligned with Democratic policies. That’s just how a multi-party legislature works.
