(6,991 posts)But the dark money man from WV and the dark money woman from Arizona are effectively doing real damage to the party, and what if very little gets done with Pres. Biden's agenda, and they severely curtail it? I get the numbers, but numbers don't matter very much right now, especially since you have people in the party we voted for doing the other party's dirty work for them. Where was the man from WV when the tRump/GQP passed their trillions of dollars in tax cuts for the rich that only helped the rich/corporations? Oh, so now this bill which will help many Americans and drive down inflation over 10 years costs too much? That tax cut for the rich is MOSTLY what drove up this current deficit that the GQP refuses to pay for, and now they want to shut the government down (Thank God that was averted) and not raise the debt ceiling to pay for THEIR tax cuts for the rich from 2019? The GQP want to destroy Biden and blow up his agenda and make sure he doesn't get re-elected and they do take the house/senate/and possibly the White House--if they can steal enough votes. Oh God, that's another story.
As far as McConnell goes, his filthy hands are clean as a whistle. What if Biden has a chance to appoint someone to the high court and the clown from WV doesn't like that pick, and announces aloud that the person being looked at is too liberal for the high court? Then what be forced to put another centerist, white male up there that Manchin (and his donors) like? It's been rumored for a while that Pres. Biden very much wants to place a black female on the high court and if Manchin torpedo's that, you talk about losing voters. Black women who've been fiercely loyal to Dems will not vote, as they will say to themselves, loyalty doesn't matter, only our votes. McConnell connived and he has his Federalists and stepford judge on the high court, but if Manchin (and his donors) don't like Biden's pick to the high court, and especially if its a black female? The votes would matter than, as we'd have 50 + 1 with vp Harris. But if it's torpedoed by dark money Manchin, or that dark money Sinema.
I agree with Rob Reiner, and Fernand Amandi.

The guy from WV and the gal from Az. is doing the work of the GQP/US Taliban for them. They sure as hell aren't working as Dems, or for who voted them into office.
