So, albaby1, now you're claiming King Schumer and the Dems were demanding NOTHING AT ALL until TODAY?

So after over a month of a completely unnecessary shutdown, they have now for the very first time, presented their first and only bargaining position--a mere 1 year extension of covid era enhanced ACA premium subsidies/credits totalling $38 billion?

IN all this time since the shutdown began, and in all the time leading up to it, the Democratic Party asserted no position at all in response to the Republicans' demand for a clean C.R.?

Really?

Why didn't Schumer publicly announce prior to the shutdown that all he was looking for was a one year extension of the ACA subidies at an estimated cost of $38 billion?

When you play this "dumb," it's just stupid.
