Spending Bill Backlash and the Future of the Democratic Party
Ben Wikler, Washington Director at MoveOn.org, discusses the backlash Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) is facing in the wake of his decision to vote for government funding without a fix on DACA.
Wikler says he believes Democrats have the upper hand if February 8th comes and another shutdown happens.
