This poo poo is crazy

I really don't want it to pass but I'm also kind of ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ if it gets railroaded through by Republicans because it's going to fuuuuuuuuuuuuck enough people that it just might have electoral consequences.

There will be no electoral consequences. The voters of these people are in it for the long haul, regardless of how it affects them.

This bill is going to gently caress them over royally but they're easily duped so it won't matter.

Can they get a CBO score that fast? Last time it took weeks.

Per reporting I saw earlier today mcconnell has been sending the bill over piece by piece for scoring, so that the cbo could truthfully say they haven't received the entire bill while still getting it scored

I hate Bill Maher with the fire of a thousand suns but he said something a few weeks ago that I agree with: Democrats need to start treating this like a bar fight. The GOP isn't coming to the table in good faith, so the Democrats have to start getting dirty.

They won't, but they need to.

I mean there really isn't that much that can be physically done by the democrats without votes but they'll probably parliament the bill until the rules get changed.

Yeah this is how cults work actually. Make people invest so much that fear of shame and regret over making such a terrible choice literally overrides their executive function and a) reshapes their perception of reality and b) prevents them from leaving

People call the GOP a death cult for laffs but it really does operate like one

"The Democrats wouldn't work with them to make the bill better" - VOTES HARD R



Whatever. There's no solving that problem. Democrats are never going to win over the insane heartless "deplorables" through arguments, or pointing at reality. The sooner they write those people off and stop burning everyone elses goodwill in order to figure out how to get some hosed up racist to :thunk: the better off everyone will be.

Stop trying to divine how to win those people's love and just go make good policy and offer actual good poo poo. If they come, they come, welcome them aboard have some rich people's tax money and good services. If they want to wave their dicks at us as they drown in a sea of opioids and donald trumps piss? Fine by me. It's a free loving country, go eat poo poo and die if that's what you want.

What's gonna happen is different from what C-SPAM thinks will happen

What yall think will happen: the old people will keep 100% voting for the Republicans

What will actually happen: at least 10% of the elderly R-voting population will die within the next 3 years directly because of this decision, but will be immediately replaced at the booth by said people's kids, who will unironically vote R because killing their parents will be the happiest Republicans have ever made them

Be mindful of the prayers you send
Pray hard but pray with care
For the tears that you are crying now
Are just your answered prayers
The ladders of life that we scale merrily
Move mysteriously around
So that when you think you're climbing up, man
In fact you're climbing down
