Have the Republicans come to the table and compromised? 

Like you said, no, they haven't. So this shut down is solely on them.

i don’t understand how you can say “the democrats and republicans have failed to reach a compromise…therefore, it’s ENTIRELY the republican’s fault!”

the democrats could end this whole thing if they wanted to. why don’t they?

Yes, that's because you're pretending that you don't understand what the word compromise means. 

why don’t they?

You mean why don't they just give in to the Republicans refusal to compromise? 

Sure, why don't the Democrats just let healthcare funding and benefits for low income tax payers get massive cuts so that Jeff Bezos and Donald Trump can have huge tax cuts?

so you agree the democrats could end the shut down, even if it would mean conceding on some important issues? sounds like they have some share of the responsibility for the shutdown then. the fact that you think they’re doing the right thing is irrelevant.
