After bending the knee to the GOP and agreeing to vote 'yes' on the House-passed continuing resolution to fund the government through September, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) offered a contrived outburst on MSNBC, calling Republicans 'bastards' before quickly correcting himself.
"To have the conflict on the best ground we have, summed up in a sentence, that they're making the middle class pay for tax cuts for billionaires?" said Schumer. "It's much, much better not to be in the middle of a shutdown, which should divert people from the number one issue we have against these bastards, sorry, these people, which is not only all these cuts, but they're ruining democracy."
