    Maybe the democrats should have worked hard enough to get a majority. Or chosen to negotiate by allowing the bill for temporary snap funding to pass.

    The democrats blocking the last one is them DIRECTLY withholding snap funding until they get what they want.

    Their strategy, is that people are stupid and will blame the republicans for the actions of the democrats. More likely though, the democrats are going to give the republicans that supermajority in 2026.

      So the republicans are literally incapable of governing the country without a supermajority, but the democrats are? Who would vote republican then?

      Republicans control the house, senate, and presidency. Where’s the leadership?
