You seek chaos and divisiveness. Just admit it.

That’s not how it works. The burden isn’t on the dems to be bipartisan. God knows they tried.

No they haven't. You didn't even listen to the segment. BTW, neither have repubs. We should be able to call it out.

Yeah. They did. Hell Obamacare was a bipartisan bill, from the gang of 8.

This piece isn't about Obamacare. Try Ukraine and Israel. Hell, try the Ship Act.

8 Rs: we want a new speaker because this one isn’t crazy enough

democrats: we nominate Hakeem Jeffries

obstinately sane Rs: why won’t the democrats vote for a republican?

Majority Rs and Majority Ds favor support for both Israel and Ukraine.

Who holds the majority and is providing the roadblocks.

To avoid chaos. Not complicated.

Democrats are under no obligation to save the Rs from those 8 crazies. 

[AUDub 11,153]

I like the tacit admission that those 8 crazies are chaotic though.

Who is throwing Israel under the bus? Who blocked the Ship Act?

Technically correct, but how about taking one for American citizens?

Not tacit. I've stated it before. Doesn't discount that chaos could have been avoided for the American people. Bipartisanship is possible. Remember Obamacare?

It passed the house. Hasn’t come up in the senate yet.

but the bill may very well be problematic and scattershot.

We have to wait and see. There’s no simple off switch for Iranian Oil.

Why hasn't it come up in the Senate? Ask Chuck.

Perhaps.

Can't argue the point, but worth a shot.

This is my point about 2028. Trump may have learned how to manipulate maga - but way down deep he isn’t one. He’s just an opportunist: he gives maga what they want, they give him votes. Symbiotic. MTG IS maga, she really believe this stuff, combined with rage and eat your own. Once Trump is gone, and the next gen of maga steps up - hang on.  Unless electorates get a handle on their nut cases, mtg is a lens into the potential of where maga goes.

I think DeSantis is on deck. He's done very well for Florida. 

MTG on the other hand needs to go. She's not alone. As other threads have pointed out, many in Congress need to go.

What would be the biggest effect should this bill pass for the average consumer. 

[homersapien 11,389]

Let me see if I understand this thread:

1. Republicans clearly can't govern.

2. It's the Democrats fault.
