What says it all… is the majority of Americans dont buy that horseshit.

You sure? We are a very credulous bunch.

As I said elsewhere recently, I'm not really sure what the smart play is (politically). If the Dems capitulate, there is a real probability that the Reps won't extend the subsidies. On the other hand, if they hold to their guns, the Reps are -mostly- perfectly happy with the government shutdown. They are always talking about cutting SNAP and Medicaid (and even Medicare), plus the ACA.

I don't think there's a good choice to be made. And I'm not certain which is the less-bad choice. Politically. Obviously, the short-term goal of restoring SNAP would be good. But longer term, what will happen? The Reps have little interest in discussing anything. And who will ultimately get the blame?
