So the parliamentarian would be overruled and then we'd see if these f***ers would actually vote down the bill. im betting they wouldn't.

If Biden and Kamala cared as much about 15/hour as they said they did they would get it done. Get a new “parliamentarian” or pass a separate rule stating that a minimum wage increase obviously falls within budget reconciliation.

Make Manchin and Sinema publicly vote no and tell Manchin you’ll lock his crooked daughter up for life if he votes no. You control the entire government, get it done.

Dems control all 3 branches of government but Biden can’t follow through on the most basic campaign promises.

“Just replace every republican”

Doesn’t work like that man. The democrats can’t ever win plenty of seats and they need to try something different if they wanna win the swing seats that do exist in the senate evidently.

dems somehow can never just do the same s*** repubs would do in a heartbeat to get s*** done.

@BA explain why that's always the case my guy.

could you imagine if republicans had a 50-50 senate, the house and the presidency lmao? theyd waste no time breaking every norm and doing whatever possible to pass their s*** ass agenda

Trump failed to deliver on more promises than he was able to keep in 4 years. It’s not like he just exerted his will. You guys just constantly let him off the hook to own the libs!

Something like the Kavanaugh confirmation was able to pass through because Manchin broke rank.

You seem to be confused about how the senate works or something, or you’re just being willfully obtuse... Having a 50-50 with the presidency is hardly carte blanche lmao. It is barely even a majority with people like Manchin in office, and he is only tolerated because the alternative is someone who would resemble McConnell.

Im not just talking about Trump bruh lol. Republicans are more than just him idk why u keep going back to that.

If Joe Biden really wanted to get any of his promises done, he really could. Like...nothing could actually stop him.

They cant even get 51 votes to pass something that can circumvent the filibuster

What are you talking about? What difference does it make if they have the majority in the senate if they can’t even rely on the votes?

You say this s***, and you forget that 4 years ago the republicans had the house, presidency, AND senate with more than a 50-50 split and still couldn't get everything they wanted done. They couldn't even win the obamacare repeal that required 50 votes.

They actually had to rewrite the trump tax cuts after the senate parliamentarian stopped them too

Yeah john McCain hated trump. Put another non trump repub in and they'll pass whatever they want

Anyways, we are constantly being shown that electoral politics is a terrible Avenue for change but ppl refuse to accept it

what do you suggest? Also maybe people dont want the changes you want lol

It wasn't just McCain, Collins and Murikowski also voted no. So they had an even bigger majority but couldn't get it pushed through.

Lol lazy ass logic

minimum wage is cut from the bill basically lmao

jesus f***ing christ lmfao

so 2000 don't mean 2000 anymore for those cut off from their jobs last year with that income level?

exactly lol

if this s*** is supposed to be an extension of 600, then why aren't the same people getting it? they lied, plain and simple.

Dems down bad

F*** these politicians for life

I hope that 10k student loan forgiveness still has a chance

it doesn't. if it did, it'd be done already

You just might be right
