It's unclear to me how a party that does not hold the White House and has a majority in both houses of Congress can allow legislation to lapse. Can you explain?
Can you further explain why the Senate Republicans refused to bring the five-year reauthorization of CHIP passed by the House on November 5th to a vote?
Can you further explain why the Senate Republicans refused a simple stopgap measure that was routine during prior shutdowns by Republican Congresses to pay troops and allow the benefits that they put their lives on the line for?
Can you further explain why the Senate Majority Leader is on television this morning pointing at the White House as the problem, not the minority party?
Thanks, I look forward to your responses.

He blamed the WH? This Mitch McConnell?

All of those things could have been funded in the bill on Friday. Why did Dems refuse to vote for it? What specifically IN the bill did they oppose?

Probably they opposed the reneging on the bipartisan compromise bill that would pass both houses easily.
It's pretty simple math: Republicans hold the Senate 51-49 (boy, who knows if that extra seat the child molester tried to run for in Alabama would have helped). Given that there are also five Republicans who refuse to vote yes, McConnell is essentially in the minority in his own chamber.
He knows he needs to get to 60. He knows that means he only has 46 votes - so he needs 14 more.
He could change the rules to get it to 51, but he's too much of a pussy.
He could also bring up for votes legislation that both sides have already agreed on with 60 votes, but he's petrified that Trump will yell at him during the State of the Union or fire his wife.
Or he could turtle (ironic) and point fingers while dead soldiers' widows go out of pocket to pay for their funerals and feed their kids.
