    The bigger impact of the shutdown could be this: Democrats feel chastened by this fight and a number of senators have little appetite for another shutdown in three weeks, giving GOP more leverage than anticipated

        How About: Dems are heartened that the children who receive medical care because of CHIP cannot be Republican hostages.

        GOP had 6 years of funding for CHIP on the table before the shutdown began. Dems shutdown for DACA and delayed funding of CHIP in the process. That’s the objective truth.

        Your article has a suspicious link warning iPhone won’t load it but it’s a fact that GOP offered 6 years of CHIP funding to pass a short term CR and Dems wouldn’t vote for it. Absolute fact.

        They better have the appetite for impeachment in Nov then. We are going to fill the house with Dems then they need to get busy.

        If R's don't repair #DACA D's will have greater public support for holding firm in three weeks when next Continuing Resolution comes up. Could get very interesting and not necessarily in a good way.

        I’m a Dem and I think you’re right. At least from the outside it looks like they can’t negotiate (or market their stance) out of a wet paper bag right now.

        1. Let's get real for once. Nothing will be done on DACA and ICE will be rounding these people up by the bus load. If history has taught us anything, most of us will watch and do nothing. We watched as we slaughtered native Americans to steal their land. Watched as we enslaved

        2. an entire continent of people for free labor & sadistic indulgences. Watched as we put AMERICANS in camps during WW 2. Watched as women were persecuted for demanding equality. Watched as blacks were lynched, raped, beaten- for demading equality and justice. And on and on..

        So I'm curious. Since we have a fairly large wing of the Republican party that were dancing with glee over the shutdown and considered it a feature, not a bug, how are the Democrats 'chastened' by refusing to carry their water for them on that issue?
