Democrats have to stop bailing out Republicans from facing the consequences of their own policies. And yeah, that means they have to stop sparing voters from experiencing what GOP government truly means.
Every time Dems step in, it only emboldens the GOP & they make it even worse the next time.

So Democrats get:
1. A CR that will prevent the GOP from facing the wrath of Americans for a shutdown over the holidays
2. A coupon for one (1) meaningless ACA vote that will fail
3. An end to the illegal RIF/SNAP moves that are already before the courts
Those all seem like wins for the GOP.

I don’t have a clue. Dems offered the GOP a 1 year ACA subsidy compromise and the GOP told them to kick rocks.
Longest shutdown continues, I guess.

GOP healthcare plan:
FOX: So you would ask Speaker Johnson to recall the House?
GOP REP. KEVIN KILEY: Not only would I, I've asked him to do it repeatedly. There's no justification. And honestly, it's Republican voters who should be most upset about this when they delivered a GOP majority and now that's being wasted

It may be past time to start doing demonstrations outside of GOP Congresspeople's local offices.
Can someone explain to me why we’re paying House Republicans to stay at home and do nothing? SMDH
If our air traffic controllers and TSA, as well as, other essential workers have to go to work without pay, then why in the hell are all these lazy, do-nothing Republicans getting paychecks?!

Due to the cruel, corrupt Trump/GOP, Americans suffered with the longest government shutdown in USA history! All so Trump/GOP could rip away food from the most vulnerable Americans & eliminate health care! Trump/GOP making everything unaffordable, expensive, & hurting Americans! Vote out Trump/GOP!

Sen. Ron Wyden is calling out the GOP for pushing to slip a nationwide backdoor abortion ban into the government funding bill. This is dangerous for women’s health care. We’ve already seen the consequences in states like TX, but I guess the GOP is intent on The Handmaid’s Tale.

I don't think it's cowardice. I think that they are OK with what the GOP is doing. The sooner folks reconcile with this, the better.

Senate hopes for shutdown breakthrough Sunday
Senators believe enough Democrats are ready to reopen the government. The White House isn’t standing in the way of an emerging deal.

The politics of the shutdown:
*GOP had a strong opening position
*Undercut themselves with the RIFs and unnecessary cuts to blue states/SNAP
*Polls showed GOP getting most of the blame, no reason to assume that would change
*Dem centrists then folded on their key issue of ACA subsidies

Even more true today: Democrats are ripe for a base revolt like the GOP in 2015 when Trump went down the escalator.

Dems should be all over THIS, not caving on a shutdown and healthcare premiums on which the publicly currently clearly blame Trump and the GOP for.
At least some people’s lives have improved in Donald Trump’s America.

Ah yes, the GOP gets to continue destroying the government, the Dems get a line for an email.
Kaine on why he thinks just getting a vote on healthcare is a win: "We're the minority party, but everybody will get to see who is standing for them when it comes to lowering their healthcare costs"

Establishment Democrats aren’t afraid of the GOP. They simply agree with the GOP in almost all the ways that count. And it is in those ways they do the most harm to the poor, to the sick, and to immigrants.

Democratic Leadership just bent the knee and agreed to an "inshallah" deal with the GOP, who won't honor anything, much like last time.
