republicans pushed to defund obamacare. ted cruz angered many of his own colleagues. there were testy meetings. he was essentially an outcast. mitch mcconnell was not happy with him. and the government shut down because clearly senate democrats were not going to go along with a budget agreement that defunded obamacare. the dynamics were a little different but if there's any comparison to be made here it would be in this particular case democrats obviously do not control the senate. they were making certain demands about what is included in a measure, refused to provide the votes for a shutdown. so i think if you want to make a comparison, you can compare senate democrats to ted cruz. i would argue it's a little different politically, the scenario, because, in part, democrats were united until today when ted cruz went through this in 2013. i was here for every day of it. the republicans were unhappy with how he was acting. senator cruz was the last one standing against president trump
