CNN shocked that Trump is winning the shutdown
It is a shame that those on the left think this is some sort of contest.

They're both biased. But the difference is that you seek to project the image of a guy who is in the middle of the political spectrum even while espousing the Republican party line on every issue. You could not even admit that it was a mistake for the Trump Administration to allow live munitions to be fired over Interstate 5 while it was open, which is precisely what would have happened had Governor Newsom not closed I-5..
It might come to this.
When the Affordable Care Act passed. behind closed doors, without one Republican vote, the average annual premiums for a family of four people was around $1,000 per year.
In a three year period, a family of four ended up having to pay annual premiums of $5,000 and an excessive amount of out-of-pocket costs before the medical insurance paid. It was a scam before it was passed.
We all know. This happened to all of us.
SNAPPED: Just two weeks ago Democrats protests worrying that Trump would become a king. Now an Obama judge is ordering Trump to ignore Congress and fund SNAP despite a lack of appropriation. If Judge McConnell can make Trump fund SNAP why can't he make Congressional Democrats pass the CR to fund everything?
The “Affordable Care Act” is a scam.
• If you’re over 60, they hit you with $3,000–$4,000 a month in premiums — just for getting older.
• If your family of four earns over $120,000, you’re cut off from subsidies and forced to pay full freight while illegal immigrants and welfare recipients get theirs for free.
It’s not affordable. It’s a war on the middle class.
well, there is an interesting development on the shutdown. Seems as if a group of house republicans - 189 of them - has declared they are against any extension of the Biden COVID ACA extensions. Remember, if the Senate changes the "clean" CR, it has to go back to the house for a vote. Democrats wouldn't have enough votes to pass the revises CR without some Republican support - not that there wouldn't be enough Republican votes left to pass it if all democrats voted for it.The democrats are emboldened to keep the government shut down... lmfao...
And let us not forget why. We are watching the ACA fail in real time.........................

And now we know it is the EXTREMISTS on the left who are shutting down the government.
Senate Dem divide emerges as progressives warn against ending shutdown

This is why the Democrats will keep the shutdown going. There's no downside for them. They can stop the Trump agenda in its tracks for as long as they like. They don't care if planes crash and people die and federal workers are evicted from their homes. They will just blame Republicans. And they will get away with it because the media lies and Democrat voters are lemmings.
Reminder that every single senate democrat, minus Manchin and Sinema, voted to get rid of the filibuster. Twice.

Not sure but if they did, we're meeting them in the middle so time to play ball and get the government open.didn't republicans already offer a 1 year extension?
lest we forget, whatever Senate approves has to go back to house.

I don't disagree with your post. Where we might disagree is how to get to better healthcare. If I understand, the enhanced subsidies only contribute about 3% or so of the projected increase for this year. So no matter what happens on subsidies the premiums are going up considerably. (I've seen that 3% number a couple of places, but I can't certify it's 100% correct).Not sure but if they did, we're meeting them in the middle so time to play ball and get the government open.
The exit polling from the NJ Governors race showed a huge advantage for Sherrill on the issue of healthcare so voters want this to be a priority for Republicans. Somebody needs to listen or the mid-terms will be a blue wipeout.
1. Top Voter Issues: Economy Dominates, But With a Democratic Twist Voters prioritized pocketbook concerns, but their framing favored Sherrill's pitch on broader economic relief over Ciattarelli's tax-cut focus. This reversed 2024 presidential trends, where "economy-first" voters broke heavily Republican.
