This feels more like posturing than real

Plus, if Democrats actually put it to a vote and Senators have to put their names to "yes" or "no", we'll see a few Republicans defect

Mitch McConnells role and greatest strength was being a flame shield. He kept bills from even being voted on so that his senators never had to actually stick their necks out on positions. Without that shield, you'll see a lot more cooperation

Senate Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (N.Y.), who is poised to become majority leader, said Wednesday one of the first things that I want to do when our new senators are seated is deliver the $2,000 checks to the American families.

God bless that man.

I expected this, but I doubt every Republican will vote no so he isn't really a factor.

Democrats are terrible at campaigning, so they only have 50 people in the Senate. They need every single vote to pass anything. Manchin is the most powerful man in the country.

He's a Republican who calls himself a Democrat.

It's all performative, he lives in a state that votes 70% Republican so he puts on a show to make West Virginians think that he is a different type of Democrat but he will always fall in line in the end.

it will be interesting to see. Republicans are more united in obstruction than dems are.

If the price for success is plating the entire state of West Virginia in platinum, then Biden and Schumer and Pelosi ought to get to work on that now.
The problem is that I doubt West Virginia or actual West Virginians rank very high on Joe Manchin's list of things he cares about.

Which is exactly why nobody should be alarmed. The republican party as a whole is trash, but we always see a few Republicans vote for good things. There's always a few.

And now after the Insurrection they look worse than ever and have their tail between their legs.

Wussies wanna scream
