Because at some point, work needs to get done there. The nutty wing of the Republican party embraces the standoff, they will have no issue leaving the chair vacant past all the deadlines and into next year. At some point, continuing to play the normal partisan game just plays into their strategy.
If Republicans can’t agree among themselves, or consent to accepting help from Democrats, then the only thing left is to help them passively.
I wish I lived in the happy little world you do where both sides see the bigger picture and everyone worked together towards a common goal.
The loyal opposition doesn’t exist any more. When they embraced Trump, they went scorched earth. Let them sink. With any luck, they’ll lose enough support in the next election to lose their majority.
