The smart play is for the Democrats in the Senate to vote for the CR and re-open the government. And that was always the smart and obvious play, which is why the Democrats didn't do it.
If they want thereafter try to undo the One Big Beautiful Bill; extend enhanced ACA subsidies; Medicaid for illegals; or whatever else may be on their minds--then they can try to do that on the merits or lack thereof of those various policy proposals.
