It only needs 50 votes because McConnell (the turncoat) has indicated he is not going to force Cloture.
The bill will pass the Senate. I don’t doubt McConnell has stabbed us in the back and they already have a deal to pass it.
I think this withdrawing support of the bill right now is a little bit of an FU to Reid from McConnell. McConnell wants to force all the vulnerable Dems to vote for the bill. Reid wants to get as many GOP votes as he can so can release some of the Dems up for reelection.
It’s totally meaningless as far as passage because what matters is the final bill.
Its these stupid games these turncoats play. Their loyalty is not to the Constitution or the American people. They are only loyal to themselves and the power they can grab by stabbing America in the back. McConnell is not fit to be a men's room janitor, much less a Senator from a great state like Kentucky.
A pox on both their houses.
