Are you trying to circumvent that McConnellIdiot got duped/played?
Are you trying to circumvent that McConnellIdiot is a RINO?
Are you trying to circumvent that you, yourself, may be a RINO?

You know, just asking for a friend...

You and those like you always assume Mitch has super powers to do your bidding.

Moderate my butt, Manchin is a bought and paid for whore, just like the rest of them.
The fact that people believed that he would “save the republic” is such a joke.
Just look at his past, he will always do what “the party” wants him to do.
The same as Sinema, they just need to find their price first.

Notice how you avoided responding to what I asked you.
Sorry, your manRINO got duped/played as hard as he did....but he did. If this had been a concluding move in a chess match, McConnellIdiot lost. Simple as that.

Sorry. You mistakenly believe that you know better and that winning was possible

McConnell and Manchin seem to have more in common than the letter M.

If Manchin pulls this off it gives Biden the opening to brag about “this important legislative accomplishment” or some such nonsense. This is a very evil but skillful move in that the economic damage it will cause will not occur until after the midterms. I wouldn’t be surprised if Schumer helped design it.

The idea that the negative results of this would be postponed until after the midterms neglects the reaction of the markets. Wall street would tank.

Election year hijinks from another demagogue from the Demagogic Party. Like all Demwits, Manchin's loyalties are to The Party.

Now, wait to see if the other shoe drops.

I didn’t hear it, but Mike Gallagher (radio talk show host) said he was going to play an audio montage of Manchin saying we should never raise taxes during a recession.

making the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 anything but a done deal.”

and anything but inflation reduction IMO.

The name is probably correct ONLY in the sense that inflation will be a half percent lower than the Build Back Broke bill. It’s how Dumocrats roll.

You would have to be blind in one eye and unable to see out of the other to think any of this will reduce inflation.

More spending has never reduced inflation.

We'll see. I hope you are right, but if we assume "the markets" are driven by reason we will often be disappointed.

Good point! I forgot how they do budgets (if they do one at all). The deficit could have been 2 zillion but they work day and night to get it down to 1 zillion. That becomes a 1 zillion deficit cut!!! Over ten years of course and all the “cuts” occur in year 10 which never happens.
