End the filibuster.

The Republican party is more concerned with power than it is in preserving a democracy or even living in an objective reality.

I seriously hope this causes Manchin to rethink his stance.

Juxtaposing these two comments against each other is just too freaking funny.

It's almost admirable, if only Democrats were as interested in gaining and properly using power.


No.

I respect it.  Republicans get excrement done.  I certainly don't like almost all of the excrement they get done but I respect that they play the game to win.  Democrats focus-group the most palatable ways to lose.

Respect is not the word I use.

...what are you talking about?

They had a majority in 2016 in every branch of Congress, and had control of the executive branch and couldn't even get NPR defunded.

End the filibuster.

The only argument against it is that Dems plan to use it when they inevitably lose power...

It's almost admirable, if only Democrats were as interested in gaining and properly using power.

...because of this.

The Republican party is more concerned with power than it is in preserving a democracy or even living in an objective reality.

I seriously hope this causes Manchin to rethink his stance.

It won't. Because he's a Republican wearing a blue mask.

He's already said that he hasn't changed his opinion so he can take his disappointment speech and freak himself with the printed transcript.

This country seriously needs an amendment or law or something mandating that public elected officials be between the ages of 30 and 60

I know everyone on the left and right point fingers

But freaking old people are the biggest problems
