@mattblaze thats why they are willing to go nuclear this round, they know they can skip negotiations on their turn and just give D's the finger.
Thom@mattblaze wish I understood why Dem leadership doesn't seem to get this. The last 30 years are just a series of Dems bringing feathers to fight a war, and the GOP always going nuclear every chance they get.
@mattblaze I'm beginning to think it has to be on purpose, there really is no other explanation at this point.
Steve Popovich@ThomM I was calling it bringing a knife to a gunfight, but I agree completely. The Democratic propensity to take the high road could be the end of American democracy.

Aviva Gary@mattblaze Or something like it...
Russell Cameron Thomas@mattblaze … with Ted Cruz’s face on the trillion $ coin.

Norman Wilson@MrMeritology @mattblaze No, it would definitely be Trump.

Michael@mattblaze If things were reversed the debt ceiling would've already been raised.
