With the Republican & Democrat debate over DACA leaving a government shutdown looming, Sen. Chuck Schumer decided it was another good time to stay as far as possible away from self-awareness:
Schumer, immediately following McConnell on the floor: “What leads to problems in this place, what leads to a government shutdown? One side deciding everything and then saying the other side must go along.”

Schumer: Let me just answer the Majority Leader here. What leads to problems in this place, what leads to a government shutdown? One side deciding everything and then saying to the other side “you must go along.”

Ha! Project much, Chuck?
“Elections have consequences.”
“I won.”
“We don’t mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.”

Schumer is now apparently pretending not to remember much of anything that took place before January 20th, 2017:
Agreed. Obamacare comes to mind.

Obama to Republicans: Win some elections.

Is he talking about Obamacare?

Isn't that what Obama did though? Told the R's that they had to go along. #Hypocrites #GreatAwakening #WednesdayWisdom

So let me get this straight @chuckschumer: you're admitting that you and @TheDemocrats caused the government shutdown you blamed Ted Cruz for? OK. https://t.co/NCMAvHPIfW

Hey, Chuck, does the name Harry Reid ring a bell?”

Maybe some self-awareness for Democrats like Schumer could be somehow included in the next funding bill.
