Blue city, red state, baseball fan (game, data, history). Pro-choice, pro-cat, pro-chaos. I don't really post on social media because I am boring.
Just fired off what I would consider to be an excoriating email to the DSCC... not that anyone will ever read it. Or care. The important thing is, I won't donate another dime to this clown show of a party!

Trump is 30 points underwater. Dems swept the special elections. People know the GOP is responsible for the shutdown. So the Dem Senators pulled out their big guns... and shot themselves in the foot.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.
If the Dems blink after all of this, for a deal that all but ensures no ACA subsidies in 2026 anyway, then what was the purpose of letting the shutdown go for 40 days in the first place?

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Amazing that baseball fans for the most part just want no blackouts and for the national broadcasts not to suck for the big games and Manfred is like let’s have a piñata in center field and whichever team breaks it first wins the game
