Now is not the time for democrats to cave on the shutdown. They can get both ACA subsidies and ensure backpay for government employees if they hold the line.

Republicans are mostly to blame for the shutdown (and I've said this since September). But Democrats knew that Trump flanked by Russ Vought would use SNAP as a pain point. Still, there's only one person who can end this: Trump. And he's shown no interest.
