I expect and hope for him to pivot towards a run for governor and rebuilding the state party/taking control of it back from Joe Reed.

I don't think so; piss-baby goaded the House Republicans into not passing the clean one. He needs the Senate to kill this current bill and force the House to take up the clean one again first.

Can the House do a reset on the clean CR without Senate action? Is it failing cloture sufficient?

I believe so: if nothing else they can hollow out an existing tabled bill, insert the language of the Clean CR, and toss it to the Senate. It would easily pass the House and Senate with bipartisan support in hours, if Trump would sign it.

NY Times take on the shutdown (Not a Haberman piece)

Trump Threatens a Government Shutdown That Will ‘Last for a Very Long Time’

quote:

And President Trump shelved plans to go to his winter home in Florida, seemingly preparing for a shutdown. At the same time, he showed no sign of retreating from his demands.

During a meeting with Republican senators, Mr. Trump refused to give them specifics about what kind of plan he could support, including how much money he would accept for fortifying the border, despite their repeated efforts to ascertain his conditions for a deal, according to a Senate official briefed on the session who insisted on anonymity to describe it. The president talked at length about the wall and repeatedly pressed the senators about eliminating the filibuster so they could fund it with 51 votes.

Republicans seemed resigned to the fact that the wall funding would have to fail once more in the Senate before it would be possible to persuade the president to consider an alternative — if doing so would ever be possible.

A typical adult human will burn over 600 calories running three miles, at least.

Edit: double checked, average person running a 10 minute mile would burn roughly 900 calories during their morning 5k. As such, the typical adult would starve to death in roughly 8 days.
