Members amybrickwallace Posted September 12, 2021 Members Share Posted September 12, 2021 I love this. The GOP deserves every bit of pushback it's getting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Vee Posted September 12, 2021 Members Share Posted September 12, 2021 This has been an interesting day so far. Manchin went out on the Sunday shows to do his typical pageantry, and instead got pressed by more than one major anchor about specifics he didn't have re: the bill. Manchin doesn't usually get that pushback treatment in the gaggles on the Hill when the Capitol correspondents fawn over him like Prom King. I think the wind is not at his back atm, given some of the behavior of late from the WH (and Pelosi). I think he's going to have a tougher time doing his dance this month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Wendy Posted September 12, 2021 Members Share Posted September 12, 2021 Biden can push all he likes. Manchin and Sinema are self-serving DINOs and won't want to end their power trips. Biden/Dems are screwed with those two albatross around their necks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members amybrickwallace Posted September 12, 2021 Members Share Posted September 12, 2021 I sure hope so. I am tired of those two holding everything up. If the President shows the same teeth here that he did regarding COVID-19 last week, then I have greater faith that filibuster reform may actually happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted September 13, 2021 Members Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) I tend to agree with @Wendyas Manchin is clearly desperate for any and every reason to convince himself obstruction is the ideal (as it makes him feel special and noble). We'll see if anything can happen before it's too late. I imagine most of you have already heard or seen Rose McGowan's incoherent, pathetic team-up with Larry Elder to spread incomprehensible conspiracy theories about Gavin Newsom's family. This is a chilling example of just how much the lunatic far right of talk radio and Youtube has taken over the GOP. I've heard people say the GOP has not spent any money on this race, it's all good for them, and so on, but with a stronger candidate and a coherent race, they might have had a chance against what many used to excoriate as a San Fran limousine liberal. Instead they are just complete and total lunatics. It's terrifying. Edited September 13, 2021 by DRW50 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 13, 2021 Members Share Posted September 13, 2021 I hadn't heard that. I feel sorry for her, though, because I don't think she's well. What a mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted September 13, 2021 Members Share Posted September 13, 2021 I feel some sympathy for her, as she is being used by grifters like Elder and Dave Rubin, but she is causing active harm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members amybrickwallace Posted September 13, 2021 Members Share Posted September 13, 2021 Yes. I've thought throughout #MeToo blowing up in 2017 to now that she needs to deplatform. This is not doing her - or the public - any good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marceline Posted September 13, 2021 Members Share Posted September 13, 2021 McGowan is pretty much the left's version of Mike Lindell. She's obviously unhinged and in need of help but for some reason no one is willing or capable of getting through to her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
