I appreciate the sarcasm to make a point, but I have a hard time actually believing that Sinema and even Manchin have that sinister a plan up their sleeves.

So are they fooling themselves? Are they delusional? They are able to just dismiss the threat of looming Fascism. For what? Don't their own constituents want Biden's bills?
