Democrats struggle to unite against Trump in Congress
Democrats in Congress are facing internal divisions over how to respond to President Trump and Republicans. Senate leader Chuck Schumer supported a Republican bill to prevent a government shutdown, angering many Democrats who wanted a stronger opposition. Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other party members criticized Schumer's decision, calling it a "false choice" and suggesting alternative strategies. A group of House Democrats expressed concern that the bill legitimizes Trump's agenda. Trump praised Schumer's move, highlighting the growing Republican influence in Congress. Many Democrats feel they lack a clear strategy to counter Republican legislation, leaving them in a challenging position as they prepare for upcoming elections.
