Trump tweeting every day was actually one of the best things to happen to the presidency. The president literally posting transparently every single day. We knew his deranged opinions on everything, as they happened. I can't think of a single opinion Biden has right now, he's in his little white box sealed off from the world and someone is currently writing his next statement.

lol all Biden does is stare blankly and flub his lines.

the center has already decided that the $15 minimum wage was entirely Bernie's project, Bernie's responsibility, and any failure to produce it would be 100% Bernie's fault

From the day Kamala first decided not to contradict the parliamentarian that was their line. Joe Manchin is still exempt from their criticism no matter how many Neeras he torpedoes (they blame Bernie for that too, it's cool, we're cool). Our government is sociopathic and we are doomed. Happy Friday everybody.

Because it gives Biden cover to not overrule the parliamentarian. The ONLY way the 15 dollar wage was going to pass is if they had to vote for it or kill the entire bill.

Coons is utter scum and just got like 65% in a D primary. None of them are worried about this vote hurting them one bit.

making a bourgeois parliament just poo poo all over extremely popular and necessary poo poo is good as long as you use that to undermine the legitimacy of the bourgeois state

again, centrists have had their blame-game story straight since before we started so they're not radicalizing, and normies as usual don't give a poo poo either way

if this doesn't have much/any impact, i don't see why an M4A vote would have

its so frustrating that none of these ghouls voting against the $15 min wage will face any backlash for it. Here they are, blatantly as possible flashing a "we don't care for you, gently caress you" sign with this vote, and still they will have thousands and thousands of libs willing to prostrate themselves for these assholes and defend their abhorrent behavior

this poo poo has to collapse into itself at some point, right?

Lol

There's always more and it will always get worse. There are trillions of dollars in the military, the media, and business invested in making sure "nothing will fundamentally change" and both parties captured fully in ensuring this so. Any change has to come from a legitimate external threat to the supremacy of this system.
