I understand your point, but you kind of argued against yourself here:
but they have already modified the funding earlier with the BBB without getting Democrat approval, so the Democrats rightly don’t approve of continuing with that budget.
Essentially, Republicans used their majority to make changes without Democratic approval or negotiation. Now they’ve reached a point where they actually need that approval or negotiation to continue. They could easily take out the changes they made unilaterally earlier and pass this. Instead, they’re playing the blame game saying “we can’t pass this ourselves, we need Democrats to vote for it.”
That’d be like if I broke into your house, stole your TV, then said “I just need you to sign this document saying everything in your house is as it should be” and then blamed you for not signing.

I think you may misunderstand what my argument is. I don’t disagree with any of what you said there.
