Denial is not just a river in Egypt. Let's talk about the last 2 years. It was the Democrats who raised the debt ceiling, not the Republicans last time. Many of you voted against it. It was the Democrats who kept the government open. Not once, not twice, but every single time we needed to keep the government open, it was the Democrats who kept the government open. More of us voted for it than you. All I have heard for the last couple of weeks is about this giant mandate, landslide, and trifecta. Put on your big-boy pants. Pass your own bill. {time} 1815 We are only here because Republicans can't agree amongst themselves. Now, hold on a second. Democrats will keep the government open for the American people. We will mediate the disagreements between that side of the room and that side of the room. We will do that for them, but they will have to at least invite us to that meeting. If Republicans want us to solve their problem because they can't agree amongst themselves, reach out.
