Ideally, I'd love for Dems to just start taking credit for everything MAGA brags about. Since apparently the Republicans aren't in charge.

AOC or Jasmine Crocket should go "Cool, if you are not in charge then I nominate myself for Speaker of the House".

Translation: If they voted yes on this bill they hate, the government would reopen. They have all the power here.

If you look closely you can see the sweat.

MAGA believes whatever they're told most recently, just like Trump. My Nextdoor app feed proves this to me.

"The government is reopened. Everything we democrats want is from now on in effect. If the republicans have a problem with that, they can shut down the government. You're welcome!"

Adelita Grijalva - learn that name, people.

If any Democrat is controlling government, it's Adelita Grijalva. Now hand the keys, Mike.

Vladimir Putin is though.

This isn't really clicking for me.
If the Republicans "are in charge", then they wouldn't need democrat votes. But they clearly do need the votes? So they're not fully in charge, right?

Some Congressional votes require 60% votes. Most Congressional votes just require a simple majority. So Repugnants control Congress most of the time.

they need dems to blame thats why, and they made impossible demands to be met beforehand.

It is the job of the ruling party to negotiate with the opposition party to get their votes. The Republicans are simply refusing to do their job and demanding the Democrats shut up and do what they're told
