No surprise here. Buckle up Charlie Brown (D's).

The R's are basically going to back off on one item, and then look for the next major pain point to extort. If a house is on fire and it cannot be saved, you let it burn and you protect the other houses. It hurts, but that how to resolve it.

Yeah, why didn't we work together with Josef Mengele in WWII? Did you get the point?

"then shame on the Republican Party"... where the F have you been!

Reminds me of Lucy promising to not pull the ball out, and Charlie (Democrates) keep falling for it. WTF!

I respect you a lot, but "hold the line" is meaningless. Might as well join MAGAS and say something like "when it's out turn it will get better"... B.S.
