Yes, it’s a huge win. Because every time there is a shutdown the media blames the GOP. But this time it didn’t work, and the Dems blinked. They basically got bupkus except for 3 more weeks of funding the bloated bureaucracy. And then we do it all over again.
Every day the federal government is shut means that more people will realize that all of those non-essential employees can be laid off without any diminishment of quality of life.
What did the GOP give up in return?
