How many people did the Democrats kill by caving?

And I think this just loops back to my earlier question of what even was the point of attempting the shutdown in the first place if their losing hand was so glaringly obvious to CEmen but not our Democrat senators.
All options for D Senators suck, thanks to the voters.

Shutting down the government to try (and likely fail) to stop the latest GOP shit sucks.

Rolling over immediately for the GOP's latest shit also sucks.

The pro-GOP bias of the mainstream media ensures that all of their options suck more than they should.

It's impossible to have a conversation about D strategy if the starting point is "anything is possible for Senate Ds if they just fight hard enough". That's just ludicrous.
