'New normal': GOP signals big headaches for Biden after midterms
The Hill ^ | 08/26/2021 | Jordain Carney

Posted on 08/26/2021 5:58:59 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Republicans are pledging big headaches for Biden if they can win back control of one or both chambers of Congress next year.

Amid the days-long fallout over Afghanistan, GOP lawmakers have floated everything from launching select committees to impeachment to even questioning if Biden should be removed through the 25th Amendment.

The comments are, for now, just rhetoric that plays well with their base. But it’s also a potential preview of how a GOP-controlled Congress could try to trip up Biden heading into 2024.

Until there is control over the House chamber, a letter is all that can be done.

Not to mention the GOP has filibustered in the Senate and stopped some of the most crazy stuff the Democrats want to do.

The only reason HR1 isn’t law right now is the GOP filibuster.

If it weren’t for the “dur hur Don’t vottaz” weasels, there wouldn’t even be a Biden agenda right now.

But hey, don’t let your narrative get in the way of facts.

Of all the phrases promoted by the Left (things like “teachable moment” etc) the phrase “new normal” is the most execrable of them all.

It says: “This is how it is going to be going forward because it suits us. Get used to it. You have no say.”

They tried this on Donald Trump with the economy where they said as he took office that GDP growth of 2.0-2.5% anually was the “new normal” and that the days of 3% or more were gone forever in their “new” world.

He proved them wrong. But that is never an impediment to them.

Yep, the GOP rattles their sabres in an attempt to be in position to get crumbs from the Dem tables.

They don’t care if the GOP has a landslide in 2022 because the same people will be in charge.

Get rid of McConnell and McCarthy, the McRomBush twins and we might actually get somewhere.

Biden wouldn’t even be POTUS without the GOP controlled Senate willfully burying his decades of corruption. All Biden policy is fully bipartisan in nature given that. The GOP owns it all.

You don’t know that. Vote instead of “whoa is me”.
Especially at the local level.

Why didn’t they act aggressively for America when they had the House, Senate and White House?

We won’t be fooled again...

Don’t be fooled. It’s all for show and rhetoric.
There is only on party: The UniParty.
It’s one great, big, happy, family party that pulled off the coup....and we ain’t part of it. There’s the DNC arm and the GOPe arm of it.
Sure. They all wear different hats and tell different lies (like this one) to their “unwashed constituencies”, but they ALL have the same goals and agenda, and it sure as heck isn’t to MAGA.
Watch what they do, NOT what they say.
