"Not a single Democrat has talked about wanting to fund care for people in the United States unlawfully. Instead, what Democrats have said is they want to undo Medicaid cuts projected to leave nearly 10 million Americans uninsured." A smidge different.
The Republican Shutdown Argument is a Giant Lie
No, Democrats aren’t trying to fund health care for “illegal aliens.”

The White House is blatantly violating the Constitution, ignoring Congressionally-allocated spending. Approving any budget would put a stamp of approval on the end of checks and balances.
It'll hurt, yes, but it's time for opposition. The political costs will mostly fall on the people in charge.
