Fuck off and *** Mitch!

 

Hopefully Schumer won't cave (he will)

 

Like, imagine being a Democratic senator, seeing the shit the Republicans pulled for the last four years, and thinking "yes, let's work with them"

This shit makes no sense.

 

It's a Sith mind trick.

 

not helpful, doesn’t give me any workouts for my hog.

 

I know it’s tested for but it was my understanding that’s not used by the CDC for any of the flu data. I had thought that they used a sample group and just extrapolate the data from there.

 

Oh okay sorry. I misunderstood. I do not know how the data is tracked I just know i was routinely working 2 hrs after close because of how backed up we were because of flu tests :)

 

Mitch would have made quite the career lets say sometime between 1933 and 45 in some other country.

 

idk hard to hate the guy for doing his job really fucking well. I wish someone on the left was as cut-throat as he is.

 

I do hate fascists, even if they are talented and productive ones.

 

I’m not saying don’t hate Mitch. He’s a vile old turtle. im just saying that he actually works for his ideology.

 

Knowing how there have been photos of Rs and Ds being friends in private, have McConnell and Schumer ever been spotted having a good time together? It's just wild for Schumer to even entertain the guy

 

He correctly sees viewing the 'american process' as sacrosanct is BS, and that, if one believes truth is truth, that one should be all Tecumseh Sherman on it and take no prisoners, because 'error has no rights'.

I get the mentality, as do many here about certain issues. It's just infuriating to see it play out with Mitch & his views.

 

The problem is that his behavior normalizes shitbaggery and lowers the bar for political behavior, which is already very low.

 

He's like the Bill Belichick of the Senate.

 

Regarding my post about Mitch McConnell

 

But then he gets up there and plays all sanctimonious about the process and how important it is when he knows full damn well all he cares about is power.

 

The thing is, being "cut-throat" requires a certain lack of empathy that isn't really compatible with leftist politics.

 

Hell yeah

 

Can't we pass stuff through reconciliation or whatever and bypass the filibuster even if they caved into that?

 

Unpopular opinion: already tired of the Bernie memes
