Hours after the House delivered President Biden’s first legislative victory by passing a $1.9 trillion COVID-19 relief package on Wednesday, Sen. Roger Wicker (R-MS) suddenly acted as though he did not vote against the plan last weekend alongside his fellow Republican senators — and was swiftly dragged by Twitter users for it.

In a Wednesday afternoon tweet, Wicker touted that the passage of the COVID-19 relief plan in Congress will deliver targeted relief to independent restaurant operators that have struggled amid the pandemic.

1. Maybe they're just stupid.

Or else they think everyone else is stupid.

2. Glad you think it's great, IDIOT.. So

WHY did you NOT Vote For IT?!

3. Republicans did the same with President Obama's economic recovery package

They all voted against it and then they all took credit for it when it worked. And republican supporters are too fucking stupid to understand that.

4. This is a small weakness for the DEMS.

Democrats tend to govern while repukes NEVER stop campaigning...EVER.

While DEMS are making policies, amendments, and legislating, republicans show up on Sunday shows and commercials with ads.


This is a MONUMENTAL legislative victory. DEMS need to make sure we don't disappear and move on to the next crisis without simultaneously making sure the American public is constantly reminded why they are getting assistance.


If not, the republicans will take credit, and by 2022, the American public will have forgotten all about this.

6. He just wrote his opponent's campaign ad.
