How Chuck Schumer is saving the Republican Party
By Marc Thiessen March 22, 2017 | 5:01am | Updated
As a conservative, I’m thrilled by the arrival of unified Republican government. But the politician I’m most grateful to in Washington today isn’t President Trump, House Speaker Paul Ryan or Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.
It’s Chuck Schumer.
That’s because the Democratic Senate minority leader is doing more than anyone in our nation’s capital to ensure the passage of the most conservative health-care and tax reform possible — while working overtime to make sure that Democrats who voted for Trump in 2016 stay in the GOP fold in 2018 and beyond.
The biggest fear many conservatives had after the 2016 election was that Trump would be too quick to cut deals with the Democrats. He holds heterodox positions on everything from spending, foreign policy and entitlements to the minimum wage, trade and health care.
And he’s a dealmaker, not an ideologue. He would have loved nothing better than to cut deals with Schumer. Indeed, Trump reportedly called Schumer the morning after the election offering to do just that.
It's a good column. I hope Schmuck continues on his course of action.

Chuckie, or Upchuck, is a clownish weeper. Or is it a weeping Clown? Or, as the Donald labeled him, the Head Clown? Anyway, he and Pewlouse in the House are the gifts that keep on giving, like herpes, or Dhimmirats. :whistling:
