Sinema: we have more to lose than gain by ending the filibsuter

Good to see these two senators standing strong against progressive pressure.

Someone wants to get re-elected.

And I’m guessing Mark Kelly is also on backup. The Republic will endure for the next two years thank God. History will be kind to Manchin and Sinema.

It's refreshing to see a Dem politican who does not lean whichever way his/her political party blows, but rather what they feel is right.

I don’t give a shite if that’s their reason for preserving the Republic. Thanks to the fricking retards who stayed at home in Georgia, if it weren’t for them the filibuster would be gone, we’d have two new states, and just be swearing in our 13th Supreme Court Justice.

Again to the people who stayed at home in Georgia or encouraged people to do so there, I don’t forget. You are bottom feeding morons and gambled our Republic over the Orange Man when the Orange Man told you to go vote. You should all be in gimp suits, you clowns.

Eh, the election was rigged

They would have found whatever ballots they needed to win both seats

A) You don’t know that for a fact.

B) These people are of the same caliber of courage and intelligence as the Vichy French who sold out their country.

A Biden voter with TDS I can forgive. A Trump voter who deliberately tried to destroy this country putting the Orange Man first over their fellow citizen, I will never forgive. If DeSantis becomes President, I hope he does a nationwide Gimp mandate for the Georgia voters who stayed at home knowing better and people outside of Georgia who encouraged Georgians to stay at home. These treasonous retards should be shamed forever.

Screw that shite...see Bill Cassidy.

These folks are doing what their constituents want them to do. It's what they should do.

It doesn't hurt that it will get them re-elected down the line.

Someone tell these two that McConnell once did away with the filibuster for Trump’s Supreme Court nominees.

Reid’s filibuster removal only applied to lower court nominees and presidential appointments.

Yes he implemented what everybody call the nuclear option. He opened the can of worms and it backfired.
