[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's totally believable.  A clean CR would have avoided a shutdown while allowing for negotiations around Democratic political priorities.  Instead, blackmail was employed to try to force those priorities through without further negotiation.  It's a form of either extortion, or a negotiating tactic, depending on your perspective, but in either case it's attributable to the Democrats.  [/quote]

A clean CR would continue to fund existing programs.  What the Republicans are doing doesn't do that.  [b]It defunds existing ACA and Medicare programs, [/b]and that would hurt millions of Americans.[/quote]

New poster. Can you elaborate on how it does this? I’m not saying you’re wrong, and I don’t have a “team” here, but I’d heard it was pretty clean, and I’m interested to here the counter to that. [/quote]

There's no clean CR because of all of the rescissions in the BBB...
Plain and simple...undo BBB and you might be able to get a clean CR....[/quote]
Or just undo the filibuster. It's not even in the Constitution. Why was it ok to pass the BBB with 50 votes but they insist on 60 to reopen the government?[/quote]
