Josh Lyman posted:Why can't the Dems just filibuster? Becuase the way the republicans are passing the bill (reconcilliation), the deomcrats are literally unable to filibuster it And before you ask, yes, the dems used reconcilliation to pass portions of the ACA, it has severe limitations in what you can do using it so it isn't just a magical "avoid filibusters forever using this one weird trick"

Calaveron posted:Hey remember this morning how the new comms director went on a curse filled rant about people he works with and leakers and whatnot not knowing the difference between on the record and off the record indicating that if he knew he was on the record he would have to be monumentally dumb to say half of the things he said and if he was off the record he was one of the leakers he so much hates It's mildly funny in a vacuum, but just part of the clown show that, whether intentional or not, distracts from the very real disaster unfolding. It's the same problem as always with Trump, you can't get too worked up about the bluster, the insults, the hypocrisy, or the stupidity, because there's palpable evil being enacted constantly, all the antics are just a show.

If McCain votes no, that will be the most surprising thing I've seen politically this year, simply because the election happened in 2016, and this is now 2017.

Hope is a lie. They are milking the drama because they are all Trump now. If McCain votes no it's only because Murkowski is caving to interior threats and voting yes.
