I think it’s about cloture...and 60 votes.
Yes, who are the friggin’ holdouts?
The usual 6 Republicrats.
Why only 43? There are 49 Republicans in the Senate! Who are the six who refuse to join the 43?
*********”””
Murkowski & Collins are two of the easiest if I was placing a bet.
The other four...... Who knows?
“There were six Republican senators who didn’t join Lee’s effort—Sens. Mitt Romney (R-Utah), Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Susan Collins (R-Maine), Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), and John Kennedy (R-La.).”
No, there are 43 Republicans. There are six Democrats who identify as Republican to get elected.
Just think what this nation might be had the Founding Fathers not written in The Great Compromise into the Constitution.
If Rand Paul is opposed, the “Limit, Save, and Grow” bill is probably loaded with special interest goodies. Look carefully before proceeding.
3 more than needed.
At least.
Who are the 6 that didn’t sign?
Don’t be fooled……
Republican games: always have just enough holdouts to keep conservative legislation from passing. It’s the game they play and the players sometimes rotate based on how many they need to allow it to fail.
They do the same thing to get Democrat legislation to pass.
The history is consistent while sometimes the players change. The goal, voters blame the few as opposed to the party itself.
If McCain hadn’t stopped the repealing of Obamacare, another would have taken his place. They chose him because MAGA voters already hated him. They will never stop playing us for fools because most of them hate us. Just look at the long history of these traitors. Most of the party are ‘Romneys’. The lack of results for decades proves that.
Why is Rand Paul among the traitors? Hmmmm???
Repukes aren’t going to hold the line. Just say, We won’t be discussing this any further. We have raised the debt ceiling by 1.5 trillion, hopefully Biden doesn’t veto but if he does, elections (stolen) have consequences. We knew he wasn’t ready to lead, that’s why we need a President in the white house who can stay up past noon. We had one who stayed up all night working for the American people, and quite frankly, we were in much better shape back then. (If the party were worth anything this would be the messaging).
RINOs and cowards.
Good question deserves a good answer!
Because they know cuts are done in the budgets. Because they know trump signed three debt increases with clean bills. That’s probably why.
Who are the six who refuse to join the 43?
In the Rino Room giving the democrats umm a rub down.
