But the complaining that “we caved,” and that we were the ones with the power to end this all along,

- doesn’t that directly counter our original narrative that we were powerless to stop this repug shutdown?

The American people knew it was a democratic narrative all along. They know it was the democrats who caused this shut down. The democrats were simply using their tried and true strategy of deflecting and projecting.

Well, that’s true in this case.

No one wins with shutdowns. No one should hold Feds hostage. No one should hold SNAP recipients hostage.

Find a moral way to fight.

No matter how wrong Reps are for what they did or did not do, and they are wrong - the Dems aren't better.

The whole BS excuse that the Dems had no choice is lame. Be an adult. Be responsible and be smart. This whole fiasco was a joke. That's a Dem choice.

Agree. 6 weeks of the Federal Government being shut down while waiting for a short term CR to pass is a large scale inexcusable failure. All sides lose in this ordeal with the American people once again suffering the consequences of a dysfunctional Federal Government.
