11. What's the path for that to be true?

What was going to cause Republicans to extend the subsidies? Pretty clearly the shutdown wasn't doing so. If you wait until January to open all you've done is extend the SNAP shutdown, extend government employees not getting paid, no ACA subsidies, more flights cancelled. I have yet to see anybody explain what was suddenly going to change the math in Congress other than insisting that it would happen. What evidence is there that Republicans would have extended the subsidies tomorrow or next week?
