@irwin posted:McConnell is 78 yrs old, just got re-elected. He has the power to just say, "We are not voting on the house bill." By doing so, it means, among other things, that the two Georgia senators who are in tight election races for Jan. 6, don't have to take a position.
And they call this a "democracy"?
It is beyond outrageous.
I fully believe he wants to tank the economy and ruin people's lives in the hopes that people wind up blaming Biden.
The two Georgia Senators will have to say how they would vote, even if it doesn't land with the same force. Of course, they can dodge and try to mitigate the damage.
The bill would certainly pass the Senate -- probably by over 60, if the House is any indication.
That one non-nationally elected man has this much power is a scandal. The way McConnell is using it is enraging. Or as I said, beyond outrageous.
