there was no path to ACA extension by way of shutdown

109. While I'm disappointed, i wonder if Democrats looked into the abyss that is named Trump

And realized he was never going to cut a deal to reopen the government. He's a lame duck. He doesn't need the public's support. He doesn't care if people suffer. He doesn't care if the airlines go bankrupt (his billionaire friends will buy them for pennies on the dollar).

And I would say there are enough Republicans that are too chickenshit to do anything about it. Or maybe they are just as evil.

I don't know.
