Real quick, Senator, before you go, will the government open this upcoming week? This is getting seriously impacting the US Economy. What's your take? I think it's likely to open Wednesday or Thursday of this week. The Democrats will wait until after Election Day because they think a shutdown is good for energizing the crazies in their party. But I think it'll be either late this week or early next week. Are you going to have to give on the Obamacare subsidies? No, the Democrats will collapse entirely. (07:37–07:45)
