Unless they go nuclear and turn this into a 50 vote bill in the conference committee
Thats been Reid’s plan since day one;get 60 votes for cloture then go directly to the nuclear option.That will give 9 red state senators cover to vote against it and still pass.
Pelosi will pick and choose who can vote against this bill and who can’t.She rules with an iron fist and no democrat is going to cross her.
It has nothing to do with that. It’s electorial math. The Dems cannot get reelected with their base gone.
They are losing independants and they never had GOPers and electorially they cannot pass a bill nobody wants. If they believed they had the electorial math on this bill, they would have passed this back last spring. The fact is they are backed in a corner, and they looking for away to cut this loose and blame this on the GOP. How can they go to their base with all majorites and claim they cannot get the bill they want?
Oh they will push this thru at all costs, trust me!!
