Turtle has a credibility problem

There's the understatement of the century.

Mitch, Mittens, Collins and the rest of the weak-stomach surrender monkeys caved. Chuck Schumer was supposed to graciously take the W and keep his mouth shut, but that’s not what he did. Schumer gloated and rubbed their noses in their humiliation. He may as well have complimented Mittens on his pretty mouth and told Mitch to squeal like a pig.

I think the problem isn’t that they “can’t learn”.

In McConnell’s case, he is on “their side”. McConnell is beholden to Communist money due to his marriage.

And the Democrats are the party of Communist China.

Mitch:
“This time, this time I won’t raise it. Just watch! No more raises, that was the last one! I really mean it this time!”

Chucky:
“Raise it Mitch, or you’ll get a knuckle sandwich.”

McConnell negotiating MO:

1. No
2. No
3. No
4. Maybe
5. Maybe
6. Ok a little
7. Next time will be No.

Rinse and Repeat.

McConnell Trick:

“The American People will never accept 3.5 Trillion” (over 5 years).

“We’ll settle for 1.5 trillion” (over 2 years)

“I got them down from 3.5 to 1.5 trillion” (no mention of calendar)

There’s this weird thing we used to do under our Constitution.

It’s called an annual budget. If a budget is passed, there is no debt ceiling to raise.

This is the crap we have to put up with because congress doesn’t do its constitutional duty and hasn’t in years.

The same group of Assistant Democrats assisted them with the Trojan horse infrastructure bill that assisted with the debt ceiling.

They will line up to assist them in December.

Assisting Democrats is what Assistant Democrats do.

They do, they’re just trying to keep their voters fooled that they are an opposition party.

Uniparty theatrics to keep up appearances.

Both parties cooperated with the communist coup equally.

“Chuck Schumer was supposed to graciously take the W and keep his mouth shut, but that’s not what he did.”

Never trust a demonkkkrap. N E V E R ! ! They are hardwired liars. The minute HW Bush League signed away on raising taxes against his “read my lips ...” promise to his voters, the demonkkkraps went from praising him beforehand to criticizing and scorning him afterwards for breaking his promise, who can trust him?

McConnell said last week that Dems own it, and they would have to do it on their own.

Then the inevitable flip.

Why would anyone believe him now.
