Turtle McConnell is counting on

[kairos12]

Americans are too stupid to understand the Reich Wing is blocking a simple MAJORITY vote to raise the debt ceiling. Blame the Dems strategy.

Despicable, and it might work.

1. Make the repukes have to vote everyday on raising the debt ceiling

Show the American people the American Taliban party wants to destroy the full faith and credit of the US and cause the world economy to crash.

I guess they think if they collapse our economy they’ll be able to accomplish their coup.

2. The public always obliges on this stupid trick

And the so-called liberal media pretends fighting against this stupid perception would be "taking sides".

3. how can they block a simple majority vote which is 50 +1? nt

4. They fillibuster the debate leading up to the vote...

no debate, no vote. So we would need 10 repubs to break ranks and vote with Dems to invoke cloture and allow the vote.

So far, we don't have that.

5. This.

Tyranny of the MAGA minority.

6. Claire McCaskill, is that you?

She was on Nicolle's show today and said basically the same thing, that McConnell thinks GQP voters are too dumb to understand what he is doing.
