conspiracy theory time:

the insurrection was designed to fail. to everyone but trump and the dupes on the ground, it wasn't at all about stealing an election or overthrowing the biden administration. the goal was to make it as unlikely as possible anyone would think to do it again, while one party does everything in their power to maintain that power.

because this right here? it's treason. it was treason the last time he did it, and it'll be treason the next time. voter supression laws? they're treason. every single time. and the more they do it, the harder it will be to fix it by legitimate processes. and they absolutely know it.

Mitch McConnell: We are taking over the country in 2024 and installing a fascist dictatorship.

It's been a good run, everyone. Maybe someone will overthrow the overlords in 150 years.

The constitution affords a Senate majority that power. Democrats can complain about it, or use it while they have the chance.

Mcconnel stealing 3 seats wasnt enough proof for you? Theyre evil, stop pretending otherwise.

and heres a spoiler for you. The dens not stooping to that level is the reason republicans will always be in power. Even when he loses he still wins. Unless you still think manchin doesnt work for mcconnel

dems always seem to have 1-2 self-serving shitbags who fuck their agenda over whenever they take power, but sometimes it seems like those people are just the convenient ones to blame

in 2009 it was ben nelson and mary landrieu. i will never understand how democrats decided, after gutting the public option in the ACA to get their cloture votes--then STILL not getting those votes--they chose to pass the gutted version by reconciliation instead of the original version

like, it's possible that the other senators only voted for cloture because they knew who wouldn't, and the version passed with reconciliation was what they actually wanted

i can't fathom why though. what was passed did do some good things that were needed, but using a mandate instead of public option was the easiest giveaway to republicans imaginable. it made GOP campaigning on policy actually possible for once.

Wasnt it Lieberman who really killed the Public Option?

they dropped it so lieberman would vote for cloture. he did, though.

nelson and landrieu demanded free money to their states, and got it then still didn't vote for cloture.

There arethqt Dems agree with Manchin or are just selfish. To hey won't have to deal with the fallout from US democracy dying because they're also like "fuck you got mine". They won't be the ones suffering from it. They got their money or will be dead by the time it gets too bad.

Back then the rules still required 60 votes to get it through the senate. When trump won Mitch changed it to 50.

I think the Dems only had 48 so it was never gonna happen.

rules didnt require 60 votes for lower court appointments, though, and yet none of them crossed during any part of the 2012-2016 period to enable such appointments.

why on earth do you think 'moderate republicans' would assist the other party?

He doesn't right now. The last say, currently, resides with Joe Manchin

You mean like Ginsburg went and did because she was so arrogant as to think the DNC couldn't find anyone else to vote like her?
