It's also just entirely a moot point. Let's assume they have the R votes to "fix" the healthcare issues--they likely do! It doesn't matter! The shutdown was about the rule of law. None of that matters now. It was about forcing him to do something he doesn't want NOW, not, potentially, 5m from now

You’re joining a team that hates you!
