"After reviewing the CBO’s analysis, which estimates the bill will increase the deficit by a quarter trillion dollars, and because of the failure to include my bipartisan amendment, I cannot support the final bill.”

Who does he think he's fooling?
The arch-RINO from Texas is not being sincere here.
Reading the TEA-leaves in Texas.
Because as I pointed out on another thread you have to vote for Cloture in order to have debate. If you don’t want to have the debate you just don’t even have cloture. Cloture gives the Republicans the ability to debate and show the public what kind of pork is in the bill. This is important because it establishes what the Democrats are trying to put across in the bill.
...enough to make the difference, just like voter fraud.
Cornyn is playing to the crowd at the Texas Tribune. /s
These Bush League Republicans KNOW they are assisting the Democrats to destroy the country.
Re-electing Assistant Democrats only assists the Democrats.
They NEVER helped US or President Trump.
It’s a bait and switch
They needed GOP support to advance the bill.
GOP should have blocked it but with votes from Cornyn and McConnell et al, they have what they want
Cool, ncfool.
I said the same thing, in different phrasing, yesterday on a different thread.
And I said the way they do this ISN’T PRETTY.
But you DO get to see “WHAT IS IN THE BILL.”
Voting to advance the bill is voting to advance the bill.
It should have been rejected flatly.
Your name is fitting, you are fooled by Assistant Democrats.
So he wants to expose all the pork the Republicans have in the bill? /sar
Surely he can be trusted right?
With 17 R supporters Cornyn’s vote is irrelevant, so he’s padding his conservative creds. Nothing more
More of our guys need to 'read the 'TEA-leaves'... or they'll be leavin' Washington next election.
This monstrosity is a "Welfare for Elites & their Pets" Bill. Our people need to starting naming... start here: it's NOT an infrastructure bill.
We knew what was in the bill, poison.
We did not have to have Assistant Democrats advance it to assist the Democrats to know that.
It should have been rejected flatly if we had an opposition party instead of the fake opposition party of Assistant Democrats in R jerseys.
My information is that the CBO is staffed by idiots.
ML/NJ
Too stupid to know what he was voting on without the CBO report?
Just another example that RINOs are nothing but wishy-washy individuals. All of them must go.
This is a classic Bush League Republican play, advance the bill to assist the Democrats and then vote against.
He’s only opposing it now because he wants to keep his job.
exactly !
