Washington Examiner Chief Political Correspondent Byron York said Democrats “look stupid” trying to shut down the government following the shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
York said he thinks Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) will shut down the government, despite the recent assassination of Kirk, who was shot and killed last week while speaking at an event in Utah.
“It does look stupid but I think they are going to continue to do it in part because government really does have deadlines, these are actual arguments, and congress has to do something whether the atmosphere is tragic or not,” York said on The Hugh Hewitt Show Wednesday.
Republicans need the support of at least seven Senate Democrats to break the filibuster and keep the government
