Ed Henry: Dems ‘Caved’ on Shutdown and ‘They Got Very Little’

‘He himself voted to reopen the government after moderate Democrats up for reelection this year abandoned him and broke with the left’

RUSH EXCERPT:
HENRY: "We can report to key facts, not opinions. One, Democrats caved. Secondly, in exchange for that they got very little. Senate democratic leader Chuck Schumer today try to basically spin this and blame it on President Trump in terms of the shutdown but there is a reason why the hashtag on social media today became the hashtag Schumer surrendered. He himself voted to reopen the government after moderate Democrats up for reelection this year abandoned him and broke with the left. That did not stop Democrats like Hillary Clinton fund-raiser Steve and one door from tweeting DEMs have pocketed a big win on funding chip and have a real process to pass the bill in three weeks. Everyone should focus on making that successful. The problem is, the president and Republican leaders had already given them funding. That’s child health insurance, for six years last Friday. Schumer and many other Democrats voted against that. That led to the shutdown. As for DACA, Democrats are basically going to get a vote in the Senate in the next few weeks, but there’s no guarantee that the version that passes the house is going to get through conservatives in the house. They got very little."
