117th United States Congress: #CancelGate

The fact that Forbidden West made me hate Ted Faro even more was an impressive bit of story telling.

But this is Manchin aligning his ego with the interests of the people

If you want to see what you're talking about, watch what Sinema is doing over the next few weeks

Nah I mean like, he wasn’t going to do it until it was brought to his attention that it would make him look good, then all of a sudden he’s interested. The people’s interests are a complete afterthought.

Oh boy, have yet to get to it. Can't wait.

Jon Stewart needs to hurry up and be president already.

Every now and then I remember a how Jon Stewart dunked on Tucker Carlson so hard he made him lose a show on CNN and yet here in 2022 Jon's got the reach of almost no one and Tucker is the most popular talkhead on the most popular 24 hour news network.

Well that and the rally to restore sanity.

[Cantih]

Every so often, I wonder if Stewart didn't go off the air just before the election, maybe he could have put out something that might have nudged the results the other way by November.

They'd better drag this across the finish line

Joe Manchin, deep cover liberal?

I mean, he definitely couldn't.

double, somehow

It's almost like the Democratic Party as an institution is a force for good by swaying some of these self-interested egoists into making moves that benefit rather than harm the greater good.

I wonder what our takes will be when Sinema still tanks the whole thing.

I think there's approximately a 0% chance that Manchin flipped without knowing which way Sinema was going to vote.

I reserve at least 25% that he knows she'll tank the bill and as such elected to look good in the public eye by backing the bill, despite knowing it has no chance.

It just sucks that Sinema is forcing this bankshot tax on the rich via corporate tax minimums instead of just bumping up a couple tax brackets instead.

So when’s the debate Herschel?

So when’s the debate Herschel?

This has to be absolutely heartbreaking to SNL, cause no matter what, they are never going to be able to top whatever he says in a debate.

[Byrthnoth]

TBF this is another one of those scary situations where everyone is dunking on the self-evidently stupid things a candidate says without realizing that most Americans are dumber than him. It's 2022. Saying dumb shit with confidence and having absolutely no shame makes you electable.
