Why should the Repukes get any credit at all? They did nothing obstruct the entire process.

And he flashes his big smile, says some people have no shame.

NEW YORK (AP) Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, R-N.Y., said it pained her to vote against the $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan.
But in the weeks that followed, the first-term Republican issued a news release celebrating more than $3.7 million from the package that went to community health centers in her district as one of her achievements. She said she prided herself on bringing federal funding to the district and back into the pockets of taxpayers.
Malliotakis is far from alone.
Every Republican in Congress voted against the sweeping pandemic relief bill that President Joe Biden signed into law three months ago. But since the early spring votes, Republicans from New York and Indiana to Texas and Washington state have promoted elements of the legislation they fought to defeat.

Their emotional range runs the gamut from greed to faux outrage.

And I'm sure the irony was not lost on them. They know they're not his friends and vice versa. But he and they are also aware that they can't publicly admit that. Well played, Joe!
