Manchin Is Standing Against His Entire Party, Sinema Is Enduring Harassment To Stop the Dems...And McConnell Folds, Giving Schumer/Dems HUGE Win

You want to turn Congress over to a freshman Representative? That's not freedom! That is idiocy!

I call the wealth of experience we have in todays legislative leadership idiocy. Congress isn't the place to equate experience to quality. Most of them get worse the longer they serve.

Both parties ARE responsible. At what point, exactly, would you draw a line to stop this insanity? We're 28+ trillion in debt, adding over one trillion per year in red ink to the budget and we're at the beginning of an inflationary cycle brought on by the reaction to Covid where the government is flooding the economy with liquidity that is driving demand for products that aren't available in sufficient amounts. THAT leads to higher inflation so the answer is to throw MORE money at the problem?

It is much more complex than you make it out to be. The fact is that the chickens have come home to roost. Big business has treated their employees like slaves. For example, many truckers have left the business because they can get better pay and better treatment doing different things. Now employees have said enough is enough. Many of these shortages are artificially induced. The chip shortage is a example of this. Trump's trade policies have led to this and unfortunately Biden has continued this policy. Intel offered to increase chip production in China but were turned down.

First of all, pass the fucking BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT
Second, eliminate ALL Unconstitutional social welfare spending programs
Third, return the dollar to the Gold Standard
Last, force the fucking Federal Government to live within its means! What's so frigging hard about that?

There is nothing unconstitutional about government assistance to people who need help. Yes we need to help people who are suffering. If necessary we need to raise taxes on the rich to do this if necessary. There is plenty of corporate welfare and welfare for the rich that allows them to legally evade taxes. Big businesses use these programs to subsidize the low wages they pay their employees.

They're called freedom. Try some.

You don't have a clue what freedom is. It is not doing whatever the hell you want. There are limits to freedom in a democracy.

Krysten Sinema has endured personal attacks from fellow Democrats and criminal harassment from intrusive libtards / snowflakes in an effort to stop her party from adding another $5.5 trillion to the already fiscally criminal $28+ TRILLION deficit...

Joe Manchin has been a ROCK, standing up against his entire party, putting up with personal attacks and pressure to block his party from adding $5.5 TRILLION in new debt-adding, Democrat self-serving pork...

They both, along with the vast majority of Conservatives, have to be shaking their heads this morning, shocked at the overwhelming weakness of R-Mitch McConnell who undermined the Republicans' solidarity in refusing to lift the debt ceiling, convincing enough Republicans to vote with the Democrats, to allow these Democrats to get another step closer to passing that bill.

McConnell was naïve enough, stupid enough, to believe Senate Majority Leader D-Chuck Schumer would be grateful for McConnell's betrayal which gave Schumer a HUGE 'Win'. HE WAS WRONG.

Schumer bragged how his fellow Democrats had remained strong and unified (which, of course, is a lie, considering Sinema and Manchin had refused to join fellow Democrats), taking a direct - and deserved - shot at the Republicans who, once again, caved to the Democrats. Again, the GOP's weakness and betrayal of GOP solidarity came from Mitch McConnell. Schumer savaged the GOP's attempt to stand in the Democrats' way. Schumer offered McConnell no gratitude, no mercy.

As Schumer spoke, Manchin's frustration, over sacrificing and enduring so much only to have Mitch McConnell - the opposing party Senate 'leader', a Republican - fold so quickly, so easily, flashed for everyone to see as Manchin sat directly behind Schumer as he spoke:

JUST CAN'T WATCH: Manchin explains his viral reaction to
Schumer’s diatribe against Republicans after debt ceiling deal

Manchin, who is perhaps the second most popular person in Washington, D.C. these days, was seated directly behind Schumer and could be seen shaking his head during the speech. He looks like a baseball manager sitting in a dugout after his team gives up the lead. Manchin appeared to be exasperated as Schumer continued talking. At one point, he could be seen putting his head into his hands and eventually getting up from his chair while his New York colleague continued.

Manchin’s office did not immediately respond to an after-hours email from Fox News about the Senator’s reaction.

Another video appeared to show Manchin walking out of the Capitol, saying that he hopes that both parties "de-weaponize." He said both sides were frustrated, "but that was not the way to take it out."

Democrats, Republicans vote to lift debt ceiling for now: LIVE UPDATES

Senate lawmakers voted to approve a short-term increase to the federal debt ceiling on Thursday night, ending a weekslong standoff on Capitol Hill and averting a default that could have triggered a recession.

You can't blame Manchin for his frustration coming out as Schumer engaged in partisan political theater to attack Republicans while bragging about the Victory McConnell gift-wrapped and gave him, over McConnell's weakness, and his own party's criminal fiscal irresponsibility.

Manchin is standing with millions of real Democrats who hate the left wing of the Democratic party as much as we hate the Trump wing of the republican party. manchin is a real demorat, the socialists and the deviants are not.
