Democrats have nothing to do with this.

Interesting take. Who voted against the CR, leprechauns?
-
4 Republicans. It failed 50-49, which means it wouldn't have had enough support from Republicans if they had voted on the bill.
-
Look for yourself. It would have failed to reach 60 votes if every R voted for it.pic.twitter.com/7JJxr9lI0C
-
But if it HAD gotten 60 votes, there were enough Republican 'No's that it wouldn't have passed. Hence, Republicans shut down the government all by themselves.

If it had gotten 60 votes it would have passed. End of story.

No. The 60 votes was a motion to proceed, so that they could actually vote on the bill. The actual bill only requires 51 votes.
