    MEME: DNC: “Did I break it?”

    They break it if they get to 60. We need to get them to over 60.

    Around here is where we entered the hypothetical. Generally how an “IF” statement works. I think you’re silly to think we were going to get 60 when the election was yesterday and none of the polls predicted that.

    For those who don’t get the joke, the DNC now have more senators than they have in 15 years.


    They break it if they get to 60. We need to get them to over 60.

    None of this “controlled opposition” nonsense matters if DNC reaches 60, it will be the ultimate calling of America’s bluff, either they will pass sweeping progressive reforms the likes of which we have never seen or they won’t and the voters will become disillusioned with the sham.











  • Yeah but since its not a filibuster beater and Trump still has Veto power unless between 6 and 12 Republican Senators grow a spine (won’t happen) it’s more likely just a lame duck congress.

    Still, we can always write our senators to nuclear option the filibuster rules and pass healthcare and overturn citizens united. Just don’t make unreasonable expectations for 2028 voters to be disappointed by.
