Democrats have to hold their ground about not continuing to sign mulltiple CRs. The organizations on the ground are preparing for primaries.
I blame them. It's not that I don't blame the other side too, but Dems fucked up big for us today. After Dems caved on the shutdown, thus giving up any credibility and leverage they might have had, Trump was never going for something "bipartisan". He didn't have to. The other side lost all they had. If the other party loses all leverage for a deal, why would you ever offer them something that is beneficial to them when you can have your cake and eat it too? Dems knew this. If Democrats had any decency, they would have swallowed a bad deal to protect 800k lives that were at stake. They didn't care. Keeping the diversity visa among other bullshit stuff was more important than saving real people. Fuck them.
