#MoscowMitch admits he's running out the clock on debt ceiling to undermine Biden agenda

[634-5789]

While Republicans have acknowledged a default would be bad for the U.S. economy, McConnell and his allies in Congress have argued that Democrats are solely responsible for raising the debt ceiling without a single GOP vote. They blocked consideration of the House bill and demanded a lengthy budget reconciliation process that would take at least a week of the Senate's floor time.

With 65 weeks remaining in this session of Congress, McConnell's strategy is apparently to run out the clock and hope that the Democratic majority will not have time to enact the agenda it and President Joe Biden won on in the 2020 elections.

The GOP's playbook of obstruction for obstruction's sake has been on display since the first days of Biden's presidency and was fully on display during former President Barack Obama's eight years in office.

Make no mistake about this: Mitch McConnell is a fucking traior and obstructionist...so are all of hisTeapubliKKKan lackeys.

1. I don't think he was ever hiding it

He’s been saying it for months

Nor has he hidden that he intends to defeat as much of the president’s agenda as possible

2. how do they get away w this twisted 'logic'?

that makes zero fucking sense, but somehow, no one ever calls him on that made up shit of his.

4. Because conservative media has organized a third of this country to be...

...foaming chowderheads who are convinced they're all that stands between this country and a Soviet hellhole.

People untethered to reality will cut a lot of slack for a guy who says he's patriotically keeping the tethers off them.

5. This is the biggest "duh" story

The only time McConnell should rightfully be news is when he starts acting like a Senator concerned for the well-being of the country. Otherwise, we know where he stands. We know.
