Part of what convinces his base that liberals are responsible for all the problems in congress is the act of concession itself. It looks guilty as hell because they know they would never forgive the GOP for being this spineless.

Democrats need to be explicit that it’s a totally clean bill that will be voted on or none at all. The shutdown is HIS mess. Sure he will blame them, but he will anyway. The fact is the GOP alone is responsible for this mess if a shutdown happens and Democrats can and must relentlessly message that.
