Democrats are angry that Sen. Chuck Schumer voted with Republicans to avoid a shutdown. But he was right: It's all about the optics.

It is unfortunate that the Democratic Party insists on crying “racism” whenever it doesn’t get its way. Victims of its venomous rhetoric, such as Sinema, have every right to call out its hypocrisy when it presents itself so obviously.

The Democrat, 55, who has been attacking cuts under the Trump administration, vowed to keep going "as long as I am physically able."
