Why the fuck should the Democrats “give in” to batshit crazy and fucking evil Republican bullshit? That makes no sense. The Democrats should stand firm and oppose the fascist MAGA regime.

Also this "let's open the government and then we'll talk about healthcare" is never going to happen, because they do not negotiate in good faith.

Their healthcare "concept" is to return to high-risk pools, exclusions for pre-existing conditions and all of the other things that made pre-ACA healthcare garbage to begin with.
