However, Trump rejected the demands, calling them egregious and unprecedented onlinea signal that the talks had collapsed.Trump had initially insisted that the Senate confirm his nominees before the break, even if it meant canceling the recess. But his post indicated he was no longer open to compromise.Tell Schumer, who is under tremendous political pressure from within his own partythe Radical Left Lunaticsto GO TO HELL! Do not accept the offer, go home and explain to your constituents what bad people the Democrats are, and what a great job the Republicans are doing, and have done, for our Country. Have a great RECESS, Trump wrote.On the Senate floor, Thune later sought unanimous consent to vote on a handful of nominations before beginning the recess. But Democrats, who had been delaying action on several lower-level nominees, continued to force procedural hurdles.To allow a faster confirmation process, Schumer had put forward several conditions, including unfreezing federal funds for programs such as the National Institutes of Health and foreign aid. He also wanted a guarantee that Trump would not attempt another round of spending cuts through a rescissions package, following a $9 billion cut passed earlier this year.Speaking at a news conference, Schumer said Democrats were committed to finding a bipartisan path forward but accused Trump of walking away from negotiations.In a fit of rage, Trump threw in the towel, sent Republicans home, and was unable to do the basic work of negotiating. Is this the Art of the Deal' Schumer said, pointing to a printout of Trumps post.He declined to reveal full details of the talks but said progress had been made on several issues before Trump abruptly ended discussions.The post <a href="http://www.lindaikejisblog.com/2025/8/go-to-hell-trump-tells-democratic-senate-leader-schumer.html">GO TO HELL!Trump tells Democratic senate leader Schumer</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.lindaikejisblog.com">Linda Ikeji Blog</a>.
