If the Dems block pasage, of course Trump and his sycophants will blame them for shutting down the government, but what does it matter anyway. The Dem are in a hole, mid terms are months away and the electorate will soon forget it, but it sure as hell will get Trump boiling mad. This alone is worth it.
Block the bill, shut down the government while reminding everyone that most of the government employees are soon to be fired anyway.

The bill is awful, but the government still lives to be fought for another day. Had the shutdown happened, Trump and Musk would have moved to fire all but the 'essential workers.' And blamed the ensuing ruin on the Democrats.
