Are they grandstanding or governing?
This flashes back to their campaign to repeal and replace the ACA. After years of promising, they had no bill ready to go. And thus the ACA lives on.
This simply drives home the fact that the current crop of Republicans can't or won't actually govern. Not a good picture heading into an election year

The insanely simplistic thinking from the left leaning posters in this thread is honestly mind boggling. If a small group of GOP Rep's are holding up the budget then an equally small number of moderate Dems could step in and fill the gap, thus passing a budget. So, no, this isn't the GOP shutting down the government, it's both parties shutting down the government. Or are the Dems in the House just there to fill seats and whine on Twitter?
