Yea no shit.
The democrats tried nothing and are all out of ideas,
Again and like always, but that’s how planned opposition works.
Absolutely a mistake. The whole Republican plan in a nutshell. Stop ACA subsidies, marketplace must raise prices to compensate, people can’t afford insurance through marketplace, marketplace has to raise rates more because less people bought insurance than they planned on, marketplace collapses because of this. Republicans then thought how inefficient government run programs and vote to scrap the ACA entirely. People are once again forced to stay in jobs for the healthcare.
Of course it was, but since the democrats don’t listen to their constituents it’s to be expected, sadly.
Tell it face to face to the 8 turncoats and Schumer. Quit trying to get headlines. Get a backbone.
Imagine a world where the house democrats release the emails they released this week a few days after the party sweeps the off year elections. Then, they spend some money blasting across social media that the Republicans were going to starve poor people and disrupt Thanksgiving travel while ruining Christmas for millions more because people are facing huge healthcare premium jumps next year. Oh, and the house can’t even negotiate because Mike Johnson wanted to coverup the Epstein files.
But no, we got a promise for a vote.

The voters were cheering them on, they didn’t even have to do much just wait until the republicans caved in… Nah they caved after a historic mid term election. Trash… this is another example of being brought out by the rich
It was. They got the federal firings reversed & SNAP funded for one year, but I don’t think those two things as important as they are were worth trading away ACA subsidies. Healthcare is a necessity and that’s going to be the big killer for millions of people.
But hey, at least they got nothing out of it.
I still wonder if it was a tactical retreat.
Let the GOP have their way, millions of people will be harmed/alarmed, and the Democrats can point to that and say „See? We told you so!“
From what I’m reading, some MAGAs are waking up and looking around the world they are living in as opposed to the one Trump promised.
The jury is still out on the 40% of eligible voters who didn’t bother to vote in 2024. I think SNL nailed [that group](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAG37Kw1-aw) pretty well.
You just have to fight now for better Healthcare and it would help if you’d fight for affordable housing too.
It was meaningless. All the turmoil and literal hunger was for nothing. No concessions. Just a promise, from this group of republicans, to hold a vote in the future. People went hungry for a promise and that’s bad politics.
Everyone knew this. Apparently aside from the 8 Democrats who voted to end it.
Dude, I can’t pay for food if I don’t get paid….
Wild to watch this happen when Americans blamed the GOP more in every poll and support for subsidies polled well.
I think that opening was the best choice because the harm that would keep if they kept the government open just for another week would have been catastrophic. Also (i might be too optimistic here) i think that democrats and republicans can work to help the healthcare crisis together and if the republicans won’t work with the democrats on this the republicans will get killed in the midterms.
We are well aware
duh. that is a feature of us Dems… we do not have the courage of our convictions. we too easily bend to the immediate needs of others. repubs have it down: screw the currently affected… it will work out eventually (good or bad)
Hey guys, who wants to tell him no shit
I don’t know how long it could have gone on–there was just no endgame.
The elections showed pretty decisively that Trump was being blamed, correctly, for the shutdown.
If only someone could have foreseen this other than *checks notes* just about everyone
Next they’ll be saying „that Hitler guy might not have been a nice fellow.“
NO SHIT SHERLOCK.
Vote all 8 of the turncoat morons out when their time comes.
I wish we had more options.
Water makes you wet too
Actually I think that now the GOP fully owns healthcare in America. It’s their chicken, and whatever happens will be solely on them.
What’s happening people losing health care?
That is very helpful. Thanks.
/s
Duh
He gets it.Sometimes drastic measures have to be taken regarding acts that affect millions of people. I was in shock when I looked at the ACA plans this weekend.. They have increased by two and a half times.
Nah they did the right thing. It seems like the plan. Now the Republicans are on their heels. Epstein vote will happen this week, since the new representative. But when you put in top of that a bleak Xmas with no food stamps and insane health care choices. They won’t be able to pin it on D’s.
They’re letting the Republicans shoot themselves in the foot.
Why get in their way when you have no power. Let them take the blame
The democrats are just as bad as the republicans. If not worse. They are a false hope and fake ‘good’ alternative. There is absolutely zero scenario possible where they could accidentally fuck things up this bad. It’s 100% on purpose. There are maybe like four legit Dem reps in Congress.
No shit!
The republicans and 8 democrats who failed the American people should be in jail for the rest of their lives for directly being the cause of 50,000 deaths per year starting next year.
Then why still cower behind Schumer you fucking clown. Senate Dems are all pathetic.
Yeah no shit, you all caved so hard you someone banned Hemp in the process of capitulating
