Graham says he thinks Biden's Build Back Better is 'dead forever'
The Hill ^ | 12/16/2021 | MYCHAEL SCHNELL

Posted on 12/16/2021 7:47:11 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Wednesday said he thinks President Biden’s social spending and climate bill, the Build Back Better Act, is “dead forever,” as Senate Democrats struggle to get their caucus unified behind the legislation.

Graham pointed specifically to the wariness of Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), who has signaled concerns about the roughly $2 trillion cost of the bill and its potential effects on inflation.

“I think Build Back Better is dead forever, and let me tell you why, because Joe Manchin has said he's not going to vote for a bill that will add to the deficit,” Graham said during an appearance on Fox News’s “Hannity.”

Hopefully when you kill it, it doesn't come back to life.

Of course somebody is voting for him. A few people. Then he pretends the way Mitch does that they have more than 74 million voters and have more clout than trump does. The votes are in the low hundreds of thousands at most

Counting on one Rat to stop the bill is not a winning strategy.

This is not good news because Graham hasn’t been right about anything of importance. He is also a smarmy RHINO who can’t be believed.

Plus, he'll vote for it if he gets a chance.

What if behind the scenes that rat is signaling a party switch after the red tidal wave in 2022?

Yeah. Just like Mitch’s hardline stance on the debt limit.

Hope and change rhetoric means different things to different people. Unlike Obama, for Brandon it means he hopes he makes it to the bathroom before they have to change his diaper.

If Linda is yapping about it expect it to be passed WITH GOP votes... And I am supposed to go out and vote for these lying backstabbing aholes because they are not Democrats. That clock counting down to November 2022 is getting shorter and shorter and the GOP hasn’t done anything to stop Biden and has went out of its way to help his agenda. So all you party pukes tell me again why I am supposed to yet again support the turds you trot out in November as saviors of the world. This time try not to use the usual cliched GOP BS, have something new please!
