Maxwell Frost: 20 House Republicans a 'no' on 'big, ugly bill'

[Quiet Em]

“But the most important conversations — the most impactful ones — are actually [with] constituents and the people reaching out, and that’s why the big strategy right now is delay,” he added.

Frost told Psaki on Tuesday that it’s imperative for Democrats, aided by public pressure, to kill the “horrible bill” and he views time as their biggest advantage.

“Every minute we keep this bill from passing, it becomes even more unpopular, and every minute we keep it from passing, that means there’s more people going to the district offices, calling the offices in D.C., sending letters, protesting, reaching on social media,” Frost said.

“When that compiles, we get to the point where hopefully many of these members will stick to it and vote ‘no,’ and that’s our goal,” he continued.

2. I think it may be unpopular even in MAGA-dominated districts. (It should be).

The day before yesterday, I had breakfast in a diner in a small town in Arkansas. Fox News was on the TV, of course, and a half-dozen good ol' boys were seated near me.

I gritted my teeth when their conversation turned to politics, but I was pleasantly surprised when they asked the group's resident political expert to fill them in on what's new. He spoke up and said that this new budget bill was terrible, and would add huge amounts of money to the national debt. The rest of the group just nodded and grunted in agreement.

That's purely anecdotal evidence, of course, and not worth much by itself. But maybe, just maybe...

6. Trump runs on cutting waste yet grows our debt.

If he has announced DOGE and is cutting services, we need to see it reflected in a balanced budget. The big bill grows our debt further.

8. They are yes votes until they literally vote no. Assume capitulation unless they actually vote NO.

14. Never trust Republicans to do the right thing.

They learned they would get a ton of media coverage if they pretend they are "no" and then vote yes to screw over not only the US, but even their own constituents.

9. I call BS

There is no way it's that many. I would be shocked into a coma if it ends up being one Republican.
They are cowards and for whatever reason they are afraid of the Mango Mussolini.

[Joinfortmill]

11. A bit of hope.

[Javaman]

12. they will be against it until they aren't.

and if it does get back to the senate poor little old Lisa murkowski will get her second chance to be an utter and complete asshole.

[Ping Tung]

13. Hopefully, the "sanity" and "intelligence" threat becomes infectious and spreads to other Republicans.

15. Also, this great young Democrat needs our donation support.

[Iggo]

16. No, until they're paid off. Then it's back to Yes.

We’ve seen this a million times, kids.
