Should Senate Dems pass the Republican CR to prevent a government shutdown? [View all]

A vote is expected soon (maybe today or tomorrow) in the Senate on the recently passed House CR that would prevent a government shutdown. There are some spending cuts in the CR but there is nothing in it to restrain Musk or Trump from cutting a lot of the funding in the CR. Should Senate Dems pass this to prevent the government from shutting down? Or should they vote against it and bring Repubs to the table for some bargaining despite shutting down the government?
