The GOP is laughable.
“The Republicans have been in good faith on negotiations on the funding issues all along, and the Democrats have had completely unreasonable conditions assigned to this," Johnson said. "They want us to limit the power of the executive branch. They want us to stipulate in the appropriations bills, for the first time in history, that certain agencies in the executive branch would have to have a specific number of employees — all sorts of just unreasonable, what I think are unconstitutional, demands. There'll be a violation of separation of powers. So we're pretty far apart right now, but it is not because the Republicans. It's because of the Democrats.“
Johnson is such a loser. The GOP owns it all. Johnson had best work with his party and see what can be done. He doesn’t need Democratic Party votes if he whips his party adroitly.

He’s putting bait in a trap.

Yes. They would love a reason to declare martial law or some type of emergency state.

On the positive side, the Democrats are demanding the right things and they have leverage.
Very true.

I would like the American people to learn the hard way all of the things they get for their tax dollars. Which is actually being generous since a lot of MAGA doesn't even pay taxes.

Does Johnson understand what separation of powers means? Does he know what it means that Congress has the power of the purse?
Giving that power to the executive is unconstitutional, bub. The Democrats are trying to help you keep your power that you are giving away. They have a better understanding of Congress than you do.
Johnson is a doormat. This is why he is SotH. He will cater to them whims of the orange palpatine and the manic billionaire.
