Obamacare, with zero Republican votes in 2010, which included hundreds of billions of dollars in taxpayer-provided subsidies. At the time, they claimed that the ACA would \u201cfix\u201d healthcare and keep costs down, neither of which came true.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Democrats have consistently voted to keep the government shut down for nearly a month and a half, thereby depriving tens of millions of Americans SNAP and other benefits, as well as paychecks for millions of federal workers and U.S. military personnel.<\/p>\n<p>The Senate made a huge step toward reopening the government on Sunday night when several chamber Democrats gave in and joined Republicans in their effort to adopt a new proposal to end the closure.<\/p>\n<p>As the day wore on, it became more and more evident that the shutdown, which was now in its 41th day as of Monday, would be coming to an end after senators revealed a bipartisan bundle of spending bills that they intended to attach to a modified plan to reopen the government.<\/p>\n<p>Eight Democrats in the Senate voted with Republicans to end the shutdown, which was the first stage in the GOP-led plan. Many of the legislators who broke away from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., were part of conversations between Republicans and Democrats over the past few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>Senators Angus King (I-Maine), John Fetterman (D-Pa.), Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.), Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.), Maggie Hassan (D-N.H.), Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.), Tim Kaine (D-Va.), and Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), the second most powerful Democrat in the Senate, were among those who sided with the plan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe question was, does the shutdown further the goal of achieving some needed support for the extension of the tax credits? Our judgment was that it will not,\u201d King said. \u201cIt would not produce that result. And the evidence for that is almost seven weeks of fruitless attempts to make that happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schumer and other Senate Democrats have said for weeks that they would only vote to reopen the government if there was a real deal to extend Obamacare subsidies that were about to run out. But several of them caved to Republicans on Sunday, making the last seven weeks essentially a fruitless exercise in political gamesmanship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-9\">\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails\" class=\"trc_related_container tbl-feed-container render-late-effect tbl-feed-frame-DIVIDER\" data-feed-container-num=\"1\" data-feed-main-container-id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails\" data-parent-placement-name=\"Below Article Thumbnails\" data-pub-lang=\"en\">\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails-sca1\" class=\"trc_related_container tbl-trecs-container trc_spotlight_widget trc_elastic trc_elastic_above-the-feed-premium-card-fp-delta pad-down above-the-feed-placement\" data-card-index=\"1\" data-placement-name=\"Below Article Thumbnails | Injected 1\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"taboola-below-article-thumbnails-pl1\" class=\"tbl-feed-card trc_related_container tbl-trecs-container trc_spotlight_widget trc_elastic trc_elastic_thumbs-feed-01-a-delta\" data-card-index=\"1\" data-placement-name=\"Below Article Thumbnails | Card 1\">\n<div class=\"trc_rbox_container\">\n<div>\n<div id=\"trc_wrapper_5585057206\" class=\"trc_rbox thumbs-feed-01-a-delta trc-content-sponsored\">\n<div id=\"outer_5585057206\" class=\"trc_rbox_outer\">\n<div id=\"rbox-t2v\" class=\"trc_rbox_div trc_rbox_border_elm\">\n<div id=\"internal_trc_5585057206\">\n<div class=\"videoCube trc_spotlight_item origin-default textItem thumbnail_top videoCube_1_child syndicatedItem trc-first-recommendation trc-spotlight-first-recommendation trc_excludable\" data-item-id=\"~~V1~~-3057868906875124635~~OyXvIhUzPiQyXoNa655_LhqTyaQm6Swar0hDfvV1Ohq4prb-u6kv0jSS_HVdW5-63aoogmtI0n8idYo9N9hyDNjclKVFqgg1KseUKaizqdUvj-VRAh-PBhH61AnW-SuEfU3TZ8oI0Gu58MSQgvIWJLwIZ_BNAgDm182ODRUBnkhYRd6Q4D3KmHb0t_NlVyCMo9bZTX-ZwuXqN-6ZewLQaPmDIhCreX2gYPy11UC2513BNDmQDHeMdLAKuWtGkFXNVPP8OWNGVHmKCyh0ZHgR279gSinxPh9vP-fSQh-9XH8\" data-item-title=\"Neurologists Reveals: Dementia Has Been Linked to a Common Habit\" data-item-thumb=\"https:\/\/cdn.taboola.com\/libtrc\/static\/thumbnails\/0870cc5c208660a4aea60f15d3188ece.png\" data-item-syndicated=\"true\">\n<div class=\"thumbBlock_holder\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Getty Images This article may contain commentary which reflects the author&#8217;s opinion.
