Does anyone have confidence in McConnell and the senate Republicans making sure that the BBB bill never becomes law?
Here's what I'm watching...all the child care and family leave are just gimmees...for the women. THIS is about getting the climate change crap on the books. It's half of this package. Social reform ??? Really??? Tell that to my gas tank.
Kamala is trying her best not to bust out laughing at your question, and she is failing miserably.//
After Youngkin defeated McAuliffe in VA, you would hope Manchin got the message that anything of the Left is poison where he comes from. Going through the small towns in the western part of VA that border WV, they were going 80/20 or even 90/10 for the republican. If he goes in with the democrats, Manchin would be dead meat. The country folks with their pitchforks will be coming to get him. The Green Raw Deal crap in that bill is death to the coal and natural gas industries that are the backbone of WV’s economy.
Having said that, I don’t understand why the Turtle hasn’t offered Manchin a top committee assignment in exchange for flipping right now. Manchin would be a hero at home and the Turtle could use that coup to save his leadership post as Trump is trying to force him out.
Every car produced will cost much more (only part of that is Climate related).
IRS will be transformed.
NY and CA get another Taxpayer Bailout.
Schools become Social Justice centers
..
The RNC entire leadership should be replaced starting with McConnell.
Schumer just needs to pick off two of Manchin, Sinema, Capito, Collins, or Murkowski. My bet is on the WV senators as that state only survives on the government teat. WV is a red state, but voters will vote their pocketbook over party ideology.
Yep.
ALL the RATs might not vote for it. (But they probably will in the end. Sinema and Manchin are just being coy now.)
.
Can you imagine Dems going against their party and joining Trump at a Signing Ceremony?
Can you imagine what the Dems would do to them?
And the Media?
We really don’t have two parties.

Just watched Sebastian Gorka on Newsmax. The discussion was weenie Mitch. Gorka said, “Sadly, it will pass”.
None whatsoever.
.
There are several articles saying that Sinema has thrown in the towel and conspicuously left Manchin standing alone.
We’ll see how accurate they are.
.
McConnell teed up the Green New Deal to pass with 50 votes via the reconciliation process by allowing the Dems to pass two bills. One so-called good “bipartisan” infrastructure bill and one bad Marxist bill. He could have forced the Dems to roll everything into one Senate bill by refusing to play ball. That likely would have killed the GND in the Senate because GOPers and “moderate” would have had no cover to vote for it.
The bottom line is the GOP obviously wants both bills to pass but don’t want their fingerprints on the GND. There can be no other explanation for the GOP Senate greasing the passage of the Green New Deal Bill with 50 votes. This is Obamacare all over again.
The Republicans in the senate will not vote for BBB, even Murkowski and Collins. It’s all up to Manchin who will fold when they bring the 1.9 trillion down to 1.7 trillion, figuring he has put up the necessary show for his W Virginia constituents before he folds into line.
The Republicans already voted for the Green New Deal Marxist bill when they passed the debt ceiling and the “good” infrastructure bill. Don’t be duped by their beltway scam.
You're joking, right?
You will not have 50 Senate Republicans voting “no”.
You will be lucky to have 45.
Can we put the “Dems are in chaos” sunshine pumping to bed for good?
The GOP is gift wrapping another victory for the Dems and nothing we do will change their support for the Dems Marxist agenda.
