than he will stick to the norms even while republicans wont.
If he is willing to swallow a shit sandwich and watch the Supreme Court destroy the Affordable Care Act which he has vowed to protect. He will stick to the norms. However if he is not willing to eat shit sandwich than he has no choice, but to sign off on ending the legislative filibuster expanding the Supreme Court and adding States and there really shouldn't even be a debate about it.

The Dems can go to town with that, that he can hold a vote for trump's pick but not one to help the American people, many in food lines now.

(15,570 posts)Biden and the Dems could ram through the most progressive agenda in a century, without any delay, obstruction or gridlock, but we will have to demand they take the essential steps to do it.
If you havent already, put your legislators on speed dial.
