Democratic support for a potential deal to reopen the government has crumbled because of deep mistrust among Senate Democrats over whether they can trust Trump to act in good faith to extend health insurance subsidies or to stop firing federal workers.
Senate Democrats on Thursday rejected an emerging proposal to reopen the government that would have linked a stopgap funding bill known as a continuing resolution to three full-year appropriations bills funding military construction, veterans’ affairs, the Department of Agriculture and the legislative branch.
Democratic senators discussed the proposal at lunch and concluded that it did not include strong enough assurances that Trump and the Republican-controlled House would renew enhanced health insurance subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) that are due to expire in January.


Why get a guarantee to work later? Work fucking now and get it done now you numbskulls.
What more do you sick leftists want? They have ideas of a plan!! 1! How can you not trust somebody like that???
It will be ready in 2 weeks
THIS might be the biggest astroturf I’ve ever seen. The point, as always, is that every accusation is a confession. This one is behind a thin veil where they pretend to be left, but their actual intent is to water down the “Concepts of a plan” quote, which was from a Republican in a debate on the topic of healthcare. Was it Trump?
I meant to make fun of the MAGA idiots, just to be clear. I had hoped the amount of excessive question marks is indicator enough for my sarcasm. But I can understand that sadly there people as deluded as my joke on the internet, so it’s all good.
Lol this dork
