Well … fortnight, really. Their bad week started on March 4th and continued through last night. And there’s always the promise of the week to come!
After staging an embarrassing display of impotence during Donald Trump’s speech to Congress, one might have thought that Democrats would have learned a lesson. Instead, as Politico laments, they were just warming up:
President Donald Trump’s week was poised to be bruising.
Instead, the president is ending it on a political high after he and congressional Republicans closed ranks and, with an assist from the looming specter of DOGE, cornered Democrats into voting to avert a government shutdown on their terms. Now, it’s Democrats who are fighting each other, distracting Washington, at least temporarily, from Trump’s trade war that has wreaked havoc on the stock market.
It’s a sign of just how different this…
