They are there to balance power from the Dems, so that Independent Voters can hold the real power.asks President Joseph R. Biden..i second that question..what are you for?
Biden criticizes GOP resistance to his agenda: 'What are Republicans for? Name me one thing they're for'
Biden effectively accused Republicans of putting politics ahead of the health of the US. "The fundamental question is: what's Mitch for?" he added.www.businessinsider.com
Independent now means RINO in the tRUMP cult
It is the pork fat tied to the bill to stimulate the corrupt politicians wallets.but the Child Care Tax Credit will assist families so they can go back to work as long as they've been quarantined and tested.
for each child you'll get money MONTHLY..how can Republicans not want this for their constituents?
it's in the THOUSANDS for each kid..people in West Virginia sure could use those THOUSANDS they'd start receiving right away once signed into law.
i guess they're happy with the Dollar Store like Manchin says..'25 or .50 is a big deal to them'..is Manchin saying poor people don't know how to handle money?
you forgot your most evil tool..The Filibuster; this does not exist in The Constitution (which you should capitalize out of respect for the document).
Dems like Manchin and Sinema are DINO.
Nah just average RepubliCONs
I’m ambivalent about the filibuster. If the GOP gains ground in the midterms, the filibuster is suddenly a good thing.
A fair synopsis.
that's right and if they're smart they'll remember each team has their turn; guide yourselves accordingly.
don't forget his trophy.
LOL. See that's just the Dem's latest guilt trip designed to polarize Independents from the right, however in practice it has an opposite effect. Dems are no longer a welcoming party, it is a party of all in or all out.
The filibuster is used for political advantage by the party that is in the political minority. As such, it's anti-democratic. Plenty of other countries manage just fine without a filibuster. Our friends to the north for example, but also just about everywhere else that has a healthy democracy.
As if the Rs aren’t five times as intolerant of diverse opinion! It’s this both sides nonsense. The two sides are not at all equivalent. That is why “both sides” is the argument of those out to weaken the republic even more.
Independent voters have always been swing votes in contested districts. Amused that this is news to you.
I have not considered it very deeply. The fact that you (whose political opinions I respect) say this has weight with me. I’ll stay loose on this one.
All in all out is Republicans vs Republicans In Name Only
WTF are you talking about.
It's a change to the system that I don't think most people are ready for. Republicans have turned the filibuster into a democracybuster. So I'm glad to see there is now a debate about this change.
