if dems don't get everything, they force repubs to shutdown government, then media blames repubs no matter the actual cause. repubs are cucks and terrified of this, so they always give in. they forced trump to give in too. then repubs go to their constituents: BUT WE HAD TO, GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN LOOMED
b/c they still control the MSM, despite challenges to it from social media, and the MSM control the narrative
also because repubs really are cucks. it's not a semantic thing. they don't care about winning at all, they only care about looking "reasonable" and "responsible"
but dems aren't incentivized to compromise, because they can force a government shutdown which will be blamed on republicans which help them win the next election. and you need 60 votes in senate to pass the budget.
Cotton will do it. The younger generation of senators aren't under any illusion that it some noble body. It's just another theater of war. Until the Republicucks stop playing with their hands tied behind their back, they will keep losing.

Who then retook the Senate the next year. So it was a smart move to cut this tactic off at the pass this time around. Trump is basically having to take over a shitty Obama deal, like with Iran.

The republicans can't even muster enough votes in the House to pass their own legislation because even house republicans know that when people have to actually live under their policies they fucking hate them
