Distant cousin (2nd) who is MAGA says House GOP may snatch the thunder from Dem

[joetheman]

progressives by voting FOR the infrastructure bill in matching percentages with their GOP counterparts in the Senate. I don't think they have the guts to do that but stand by. The GOP has no shame...

1. Whatever it takes.

We need the bill. If our side can't get our shit together, we'll have to take any vote that comes our way.

2. How is that stealing Democratic thunder?

If it passes, it passes.

3. not sure what his point is.

they can't vote for it until Pelosi puts it on the floor. What is your cousin blabbering about ?

Once the senate passes the reconciliation bill and both bills are put up for a vote in the house they are welcome to vote for it. It will be even more of a success for us democrats.

4. mmmm....yeah, like that will work....NOT

they can vote like that and get the bill passed...sure....I dare them too.....

....but we all know who gets the credit and signs the bill!

....plus, if they do that it only helps with push Biden's bipartisan creds.

12. Yep just like dying of covid is owning the libs.

Unbelievable

8. And, Biden would steal it right back from them.

He called for bipartisanship. That's what the media would focus on, not the GOPers who voted for it. They'd be giving the "thunder" to him, along with a "Biden win."

9. Clearly your cousin has MAGA-brain.

[WarGamer]

10. Of course they'd do that

One, it's a shot at progressives

Two, they can sing the "Bipartisanship" song

Three, they back up Manchin and Sinema who argue that Bipartisanship works and no need to kill filibuster

[Bev54]

11. Well if they are willing to give Biden and Pelosi another bipartisan win, then go for it!

I am highly doubtful though!

13. That's my feeling also. i wish they would! nt
