Republicans control Congress, the Senate AND the Presidency and yet it's somehow the fault of Democrats the government is shut down? Make it make sense.

The Republicans created this situation when they used the nuclear option to pass the One Big Beautiful Bill, which created the CR at the center of the current shutdown, with a simple majority of 51, meaning not even all Republican Senators voted in favor of it. They did this knowing it would lead to an eventual deadline where they would either need Democrat votes or to use the nuclear option to avoid a shutdown.
Republicans are refusing to use the nuclear option which would allow them to end the shutdown right now.
Republicans are refusing to make any concessions at all to Democrats to entice them to vote for the CR the Republicans are forcing through.
The Republican Speaker of the House is refusing to call the House into session until the shutdown ends, meaning even if Senate Republicans wanted to make concessions, they can't because they would need to be sent to the House for approval before they could be ratified.

What's changed in the legislative process between now and 2011 where a President is no longer responsible for a shutdown?

Why doesn't Trump just issue an EO on the issue, like he has on everything else?

We just need to tell them we are going to vote them out if they don’t leave our benefits alone.
