@MattWhitlock Key question is always "who does this benefit?"
Who benefits if our leader and strategist for the next 2 years is someone with no relevant experience?
@B3n0624@_AmandaKerri Yes they should have whipped votes for a Republican led bill that was never going to pass, and even if it did pass nothing would have happened, and even if something did happen it would have been bad!
@SeedOilExorcist@desanto_john@Pharmwoman2 It literally doesn't matter, you bot. This was NEVER EVER PASSING. And it only got put out by Johnson because he felt he had a good moment where Democrats weren't there.
Can everyone just shut the fuck up until Congress gets seated, holy shit
@firstgenpolitic "pushing to the right" = supporting normal Americans for elected office rather than the most extreme terrorist-loving lunatics for twitch streamer of the year
@banter44@ReasonVsFear I hate to say it, but sometimes you fight fire with fire.
It's too easy for the most insane liars and propagandists to get their drivel repeated over and over on twitter (they're eating the cats and dogs!).
Sane people need to speak against it
@murder_turd@sector_level@BenjaminPDixon Congress isn't about vibes, it's about actions. This vote was only held because Johnson knew there wouldn't be full attendance.
Hakeem Jeffries took a broad Democratic coalition, held them together, took them to TWO shutdown confrontations to get Americans healthcare.
The Dems literally cannot do better than him right now.
@murder_turd@sector_level@BenjaminPDixon Imagine your boss called an all-hands meeting, but waited until you were on PTO. Then, as you're rushing to the office to join the meeting, he ends it after 30 minutes.
Now you're getting chewed out for not being present.
