The fact of the matter is that A: in a free society our government shouldn’t be playing this kind of trickster politics. B: if McConnell was such a smart player why didn’t he play this skillful gamesmanship on Jan 6? Lastly C: what’s the difference of shutting the country down in December or October? What did the GOP gain by giving the DNC “more time”? Nothing. Except saving the DNCs ass as McConnell and the other RINOs have done time and time again.
I’m done with this “strategery”. Our nation, our Republic deserves BETTER.
Please explain what Mitch should do. Be specific in your answer.
Keep in mind that the Democrats have a trifecta (thanks to morons who decided not to vote in Georgia) and absent Sinema and Manchin can nuke the filibuster and then pass whatever they want.
So, what exactly do you want Mitch to do? If Sinema and Manchin change their minds on the filibuster, it’s over:
A packed Supreme Court, Puerto Rico and DC will be States and that means 4 more Democrat Senators and a few more Democrats in the House, the 1st, 2nd and 4th Amendments will be read out of the Constitution, HR 1 will be passed, Roe will codified, the Green New Deal will pass and a nationwide gun ban will follow.
The only thing stopping that right now are Manchin and Sinema. Mitch can do nothing but try to run the clock to November of 2022.
Since you seem to have so much more political experience, let’s hear solutions rather than whining.
