As Shutdown Ends, Will Democrats’ Civil War Begin?​

It would be best for the American people if the democratic party would kill itself off in a bloody civil war.

https://issuesinsights.com/2025/11/11/as-shutdown-ends-will-democrats-civil-war-begin/

For the first time in decades, the Democrats have lost their bid to engineer a federal government shutdown, blame the Republicans for it, and win political concessions for doing so. Now that they’ve lost, they’re blaming moderates in their own party for the miscalculation. Let the blaming begin.

As is often the case, CNN’s unflappable, lonely conservative, Scott Jennings, predicted the outcome of the shutdown last week after Democrats posted big wins in blue states in the off-year elections. “I’m sure the Democrats will be happy to open the government now, the election is over,” he said, even as the Dems insisted that they wouldn’t.

But mere days after Jennings’ words, Democratic Sens. Dick Durbin, Tim Kaine, Maggie Kassan, Jacky Rosen, and Jeanne Shaheen, who had all voted 15 times against ending the shutdown, suddenly relented and crossed the aisle to vote to end the closure, joining original Democrat rebel Sens. Catherine Cortez Masto, John Fetterman, and Angus King.

And even the Dems’ media supporters admit the shutdown was entirely a Democrat political ploy, having little to do with sympathy for Obamacare recipients: “Democrats said the shutdown was about the subsidies, but for most of them, it wasn’t,” wrote Ezra Klein in The New York Times. “It was about Trump’s authoritarianism. It was about showing their base — and themselves — that they could fight back. It was about treating an abnormal political moment abnormally.”

The Democratic Shutdown Capitulation: A Perfect and Unnecessary Failure​

https://washingtonmonthly.com/2025/11/10/democratic-shutdown-capitulation-perfect-failure/

Once again, an opposition party instigated a shutdown but failed to win a big-time White House concession. It didn’t have to be this way.

Government Shutdown Looms. Prepare For Democrats to Disappoint.” That’s what I wrote two months ago. And here we are.

That an opposition party-driven shutdown failed to secure its primary demands is not unusual. In fact, as I’ve repeatedly emphasized, shutdowns have a perfect record of failure. In this case, the asks were a guaranteed extension of expiring Affordable Care Act subsidies and recission-proof agreements on spending levels.

But I wasn’t expecting a rogue Democratic faction to cave in such a politically illogical fashion when they were on the cusp of proving doubters like me wrong.

In September, I sketched out the typical progression of events in a shutdown: “Public attention shifts to how shutdowns hurt average Americans and how one political party is willing to harm constituents to play political games. Once public opinion quickly turns, the shutdown agitators invariably realize the shutdown failed to provide negotiating leverage and eventually cave.”

Jon Stewart rips Democrats who voted for shutdown deal: ‘I can’t f‑‑‑ing believe it’​

"THEY CAVED" on their shutdown.... lol...

https://thehill.com/blogs/in-the-know/5600256-stewart-slams-democrats-shutdown/

Jon Stewart is shredding Democrats who voted to end the government shutdown, calling the move a “world-class collapse.”

“They f‑‑‑ing caved on the shutdown,” Stewart said Monday while hosting Comedy Central’s “The Daily Show.”


“Tonight’s show will be brought to you by ‘I can’t f‑‑‑ing believe it,'” he cracked.

“Not even a full week removed from the best election night results they’ve had in years, seven Democratic senators and an independent voted with their Republican counterparts to end the shutdown and reopen the government,” Stewart exclaimed.

The eight members of the Senate Democratic caucus voted with Republicans on Sunday to approve a plan to reopen the federal government amid a monthlong shutdown.
