Except when there was an incumbent or he sat out so Clinton could lose.

It’s not vague though. Their paid legal representative articulated their position under oath in court. I quoted it, you moved the goalposts and said I needed the long-form version like some birther. I posted a link to that and now you claim I have to quote DWS herself saying “we can disregard the charter when we want to, mwahahahaha!” in order to satisfy you. The previous rounds of goalpost moving and the accompanying gaslighting indicate that you intend to dismiss whatever I provide you and have since the beginning.
50 votes that includes Joe Manchin, Sinema, etc in the Senate is not control.
With the majority they had, they had enough seats to do away with the filibuster forever.
The last time they had an actual fillibuster proof majority they passed the ACA, which would have included a public option if they had another vote.
Nonsense. They simply would have found a different senator to vote no. Ben Nelson was every bit as instrumental as Lieberman in killing the public option.
That said, Congress could have changed that during the first two years of Biden’s presidency, but the Senate would need to change its rules to get rid of the filibuster to do so, and they didn’t wanna.
I was wondering how his hands would be tied this time.
You have failed to prove that because couldn’t show a single quote from any DNC member.
That’s an absurd standard. They argued in court via their lawyer.
Secrets too dark for the Kennedy family. Wow.
It doesn’t confirm centrists’ biases, so it doesn’t count.
Newsom has been sprinting to the right.
But it’s a great excuse for shutting out progressives!
Enjoy pretending your king loves you.
And yet, she’ll never win a presidential election because she’s too polarizing.
She’ll never make it through the primaries because she’s a progressive.
It’s not like it matters anymore anyway. You want to believe that any politician has your best interests at heart, go ahead.
We have a king now.
Except “we tried” isn’t governing. It’s fucking about and looking busy.
I mean, the ruling is just hours old.
Then you’re not paying attention.
No, I am. It’s why I think they’re doing the bare minimum to say they tried. And the genocide that they’re supporting doesn’t benefit me in any way.
I think democrats, today, do try and govern.
I don’t.
Can you imagine?
He won’t, but honor has nothing to do with it. He’s a democrat and therefore unwilling to wield power he’s been given.
Not being up to it isn’t stopping him now.
