This messaging from the Rs will hopefully help some voters figure out who to blame. Trump determines what’s essential and Trump decided to close down National Parks, fire the VA workers, stop payments to school districts to fund education programs, etc. 

And this is why the dems need to hold firm and also why it needs to be now with plenty of time before the next elections for the consequences to play out.  Pubs always want to do shitty things, but also want to be able to blame dems for any poor out comes.  Johnson is now saying Trump has the keys to the kingdom and is fully in charge.  OK.  Now own it, all of it.  Own the economy crashing, unemployment rising, holiday yravel disruption, inflation, all of it.  You are fully in charge.  Repeat Johnson’s words to the American publuc daily so they know exactly who is driving the bus.

Because she’s one of the most toxic and inept politicians I’ve ever seen and played a bigger role than anyone outside the Biden family in getting Donald Trump elected. She consistently underperforms other Democrats in her home state and nationally in polling, and her numbers get worse as you go further into communities Democrats need to win. Nobody dislikes Elizabeth Warren less than Democrat and D-lean unaffiliated voters in her own state. 
 
Not surprisingly then, her influence on the rest of the party has been a disaster. More than any other single person she is responsible for alienating tech from the Democratic establishment (not exclusively but in particular with her absurd war on bitcoin), and that played a decisive role in Trump’s victory in November.
I never thought we would see a politician more disinterested in the reality of electoral calculus than Hillary Clinton, but Warren managed to surprise me. 

Oh bullshit. Crypto is rife with scams, largely unregulated, and now the grifters playground of this administration. It should be regulated and treated as a security.

Totally.  Lets see how this plays out for the Dems.  They have played pretty much everything perfectly for about a decade.  No reason to think this won’t be another political masterpiece.

Without disagreeing, the question is “what does non-capitulation mean.” What is the target and who defines it.
 

There is a great book called “Every War Must End,” it’s a thin tome about war but is equally relevant to politics, business, even relationships. It examines how nations will fight wars long past the point where they could ever hope to achieve when they started. How they’d shift their concept of victory to be more and more expansive even as prospects of winning got dimmer. And how both sides eventually collapse worse off all around. 
 

So, yesterday “not capitulate” meant that the Rs added back in healthcare subsides and breaks to the CR. Today, do you also have to add in “and restore the infrastructure funds Vought canceled.” In two days, will you add “also hire back all the Feds you fired?”

I don’t have any faith that there is anyone on team D who is thinking about this in a real way and the other side continues to add costs.  If two spouses are quarreling and one is willing to accept “murder the whole family then kill myself” as a potential settlement— that’s a negotiating advantage. 

The idea of America is dead. Stage 4 cancer. The only way to restore anything is total pain across the populace. The @Incredulity types need to suffer along with us all to the point they MAYBE pull their head out of the sand. Or we all die. Either way, cancer has taken hold and it has to end in pain and suffering.

Republicans can pass a bill whenever they want to.

Just like they can release the Epstein files whenever they want to.

I guess they just don't want to do either of those things.

Weird.

I’m not going to be pulled off topic here, but you should know that she and her office worked to obstruct efforts to do that very thing, instead trying to shove the horse back in the barn. 
As for the rest of the post, which you did not respond to and primarily dealt with her ability to understand the electorate and win votes, res ipsa liquitur. She was a good appointee but is not a talented or skilled politician. She’s just another example of affluent lefties trying to make fetch happen.

Because it wasn't.

They're allergic to truth.

The true progressives on the board never liked Biden, in theory or practice.  The rest of us liked him pretty well for restoring normalcy.  A few called him "best President of my lifetime."  No one called for him to go on Mt. Rushmore, unless it was some kind of joke.

Trump, on the other hand   . . . .

For the left, he was roundly disappointing even at inauguration. For the rest of us, he was “meh” but relief. I don’t know anyone outside his immediate political circle was actually  excited and jazzed for his presidency other than he wasn’t  TFG.

Out of curiousity and trying to put myself in the average layman who doesnt follow and doesn't understand the government, I prompted ChatGPT with what I would imagine the unwashed masses would ask ChatGPT to try and make heads or tails: 

Here was the response:

Blame for a government shutdown usually depends on which side the public thinks is being unreasonable. In this case (October 2025), here’s the breakdown:
  • Republicans (majority in both House and Senate):
    They advanced a short-term funding bill, but it did not include the full health-care subsidies Democrats wanted. They argue Democrats are “holding the government hostage” to push for Obamacare-related spending.

  • Democrats:
    They refused to support the GOP bill, saying it did not sufficiently protect health-care funding (particularly Affordable Care Act subsidies). They argue Republicans could have avoided a shutdown by including these provisions.

  • Reality:
    A shutdown happens only when both sides fail to compromise before the deadline. Republicans technically passed a bill, but without bipartisan buy-in, it was doomed in the Senate. Democrats blocked it, insisting on their demands.

So, in plain terms:

  • Republicans are blamed for putting forward a partisan bill.

  • Democrats are blamed for refusing to accept it without changes.

  • The actual cause is the standoff over health-care funding tied to the budget.

Do you want me to show you how media on the left vs. media on the right are framing who’s at fault? That way you can see how the blame narrative is being split.

A big fuck you for using stupid fucking AI.  You're a moron if you need AI to explain shit to you.  Get the fuck out and go back to your AOL.

The most bitchassed poster on this site jumps into the thread to lecture everyone about REEEEEEEEEEing about shit and then immediately goes into victim mode when someone suggests they should suffer the consequences of their vote. He should have said much, much worse things to you that you definitely would deserve to have directed at you, but he didn't. You're a pussy. Eat shit and go fuck yourself. Bitch.

The Senate is a magical upside down world where the minority controls the majority.

There's nothing the poor Republicans can do to get their bill passed.

i mean if they hold their ground, maintain a consistent, simple and repetitive message that the 'average' American can grasp and they don't capitulate, that will in fact be opposite of what they normally do so why the fuck not.

The ironic part is the MAGA base is the group most adversely affected by the Medicaid cuts and the Democrats are literally fighting on their behalf, when the logical (yet inhumane) thing would be to just let them suffer.
