Let’s face it, ending the shutdown was a win for the Republicans. A roundup of editorials Tuesday looks at “Schumer’s Shutdown.”

Opinions from the right:

1. Chuck Schumer just lost the shutdown, bigly

From The Federalist: The Democrats miscalculated the power of a shutdown to energize the base.

2. News media on Schumer Shutdown: Uh, what did this accomplish guys?

From Townhall: With an unclear message, Democrats gave Trump’s view on immigration a win.

3. Schumer's Democrats are using a pile of myths to support his shutdown

From The Hill: The Democrats’ spin is not adding up.
