Mitch McConnell and Trump refuse to formally take up passed legislation from the House. We are reaching a point where the damage might be irreversible.

I don’t support republicans and trump, but what is new about this? The house is passing things that the opposing party doesn’t even want to consider voting on, so they kill it. Those are the rules of congress/senate, they are not new. You could place the same disdain on democrats for passing meaningless votes that are just for propaganda. Did Democrats think for a second that the republicans would vote on those bills? Total waste of time and just peacocking

If government was “supposed” to work like that, the rules would have been written like that. I believe each party doesn’t change the rules because they want to wield that power when they are in charge.

Let me reiterate, I don’t support this shutdown, I think this has the power to damage people’s lives (i.e. credit scores), but I don’t see what Republicans are doing as scandalous. If we disagree with their tactics, then we have a chance in 2020 to tell them. We will see if the majority / electoral college agrees

Isn't it funny how ok we are with this system.

The idea is supposed to be the house passes a bill and the senate votes. The Senate lead shouldn't decide what is voted upon or not.

Thought - In the Georgia runoff elections, the best use of Democrat money would be to run ads which seem to have a conservative bent and play up the election fraud conspiracies, claiming the election system is broken and can’t be trusted. Maybe even offer up a way to grieve their frustrations with the system (that isn’t voting obviously). Would be so effing perfect if Rs lost the senate because trump cast doubt on election integrity.
