00:00Schumer comments on shutdown.
00:02Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer claimed,
00:05every day gets better for us amid a government shutdown that leaves military families struggling,
00:10federal workers unpaid, and airports in chaos.
00:14The man who's supposed to be leading a responsible opposition party is openly celebrating the shutdown.
00:19Because, wait for it, the Democrats planned for this.
00:23This is a full-blown foghorn aimed directly at the average American.
00:26We're fine, you're suffering, but hey, it's part of the plan.
00:30No, the us in Schumer's world is a tight-knit circle of cocktail-sipping strategists
00:34who think a shutdown is just a cute way to play leverage politics.
00:38If you've ever wondered what it looks like when a political class becomes completely detached
00:43from the people they're supposed to represent, well, here it is, folks.
00:47Meanwhile, Republicans aren't staying silent.
00:50Vice President J.D. Vance dropped the hammer, calling Schumer's comments a vile sentiment.
00:55The Joe Biden-Schumer alliance is banking on chaos, literally.
01:00And they're hoping you're too distracted by rising prices and delayed flights to realize
01:04who lit the fuse in the first place.
01:06While regular Americans are forced to hand their creditors a government-issued letter that
01:10basically says,
01:11There's no bipartisan urgency, no emergency late-night votes, no pressure from leadership
01:22to bring this to a close.
01:23Just smug media appearances and careful strategy memos about optics.
01:29According to J.P. Morgan, every week of shutdown slashes GDP growth.
01:33But apparently that's just acceptable collateral damage.
01:35This is what political rot looks like.
01:38The sort of rot that festers in echo chambers where leaders believe they're not just untouchable,
01:43they're untouchably clever for making the people suffer if it helps the party win the
01:48next news cycle.
01:49There's a reason trust in government is scraping the bottom of every poll.
01:53And if this moment doesn't prove why, you're not paying attention.
01:56But hey, maybe by week three of the shutdown, Chuck will be out here popping champagne.
02:02Because after all, every day just keeps getting better.
02:06For them.
