Republicans on the Senate floor are ignoring the $2000 while praising military spending increases. They are saying we need to spend on the military to compete with china

Serious question. At worse you go back to $600 correct?

One would assume that if Mitch thought this would put Georgia in jeopardy he would have acquiesced?

Probably a power play too.

Overriding Trump's veto and staring him down here would maintain his power. I doubt he won't to be beholden to Trump tweets going forward. :mjlol:

That’s the thing about Mitch. He don’t even control the party platform, but he controls what business gets done and what doesn’t. Quite frankly, he could give a fukk less if it is popular for Republicans......it’s about the donors and their business. The only reason he cares about Perdue or Loeffler is the seats. Every time he sees Perdue in the hallway, he probably look at him like he’s a bytch when he says “Afternoon, Mitch”

If you’re GOP you have to fukk with him. House and/or Senate. Steven Munchin is a member of the Cabinet and he runs the negotiations by McConnell before he takes them to the president. Vote against him without his permission, you’re fukked. shyt, Jeff Flake voted with him and he’s on the back of a milk carton.

I’ll go back to something I said in another thread:

“Toomey, Collins, Portman, and Gardner aren’t the standard bearers for the party, but nor do they cause many problems. They also don’t have controlling positions in the Senate either. Those go to safe, small deep Red state Republicans.”

Why? They mean nothing to him besides votes. Why does he need to reward someone who COULD lose their seat? He is all about control. 50+1, no own goals, get what YOU need to do win, and grind the clock out. 50-1? Play tough defense, force mistakes and grind the clock out. There isn’t anything else to it.

Remove him and replace him with who? Grassley? Cruz? Paul? Lee? Rubio? Nah, half these dudes are barely coherent, would buckle under the slightest bit of pressure, and have alternative motives from the donors.

You don’t have to agree with a damn thing. You vote how he tells you to vote. He’ll made a big deal out of something small to make you vote or he’ll call up Joe Manchin to give you cover. He doesn’t care, you’re a seat and he’s got shyt to do. And he’s got all the dirt. What is Kentucky gonna do if you release his dirt? Re-elect him.

You know when everyone makes a big deal that Pelosi knows how to count votes? Mitch is better at it because he makes the votes count. The only fukk-up he ever had (and I think he planned it to scare Trump after McCain told him he’d vote no) was the Obamacare repeal.

He’s honestly one of the few people that I hate the player instead of the game. He’s Deebo, Trump just happened to throw a brick. Now Pelosi and Schumer are punching him in the face and taking their stuff back. Let’s see if he falls back or plays dirty.

I hate the motherfukker, but I respect his skill set.
