It's a shitty system when a SINGLE PERSON can hold up debate on 180+ bills in congress.
StellarJay77
And it's disgusting that when the bills do get introduced for debate the GOP keep attaching things to it that advance their own agendas.
Ninjainslippers
To be fair, there are 52 other people cheering him on and if a handful called him out, shit could change.

Proud American tradition though. Remember when thanks to Mccarthy everybody could be found guilty of being a communist?

...being found guilty of having a political opinion??! How... Gpw can anyone support that and claim to live in a free country?

I'm pretty sure the number of bills being blocked by McConnell is a lot more than 180.
Kalavier
For sure considering he refused to do anything when Obama was in office and was quite explicit about it.
kraeftig
I'm not sure how or why one member of the senate has the power to stop bills like that. No one person should have that power alone.
penzick
https://www.congressionalinstitute.org/2013/07/17/the-hastert-rule/
mmckee44
Yet the leader of the Senate does. There are complicated ways to get it to committee. It's easier to bypass the leader in the House ...
mmckee44
2/ but still not super easy.
kuriosly
also not sure how that one in particular is newsworthy. the Speaker of the House / Senate always tightly controls the agenda.
Kalavier
I think it's more of a case of "The house/senate is actually putting forth bills and working but He refuses to even let anything get out."
mmckee44
Yes, & the House has passed upwards of 400 bills from what I've read & they are all sitting waiting on McConnell. Many w/ bipartisan support
kuriosly
which is normal.

kuriosly
Sorry about the hitting enter too early... But ~90% of bills never see the light of day no matter who's in charge.
mmckee44
Yes, but that 90% is ALL bills including ones that never get out of committee. We are talking about bills that have already been approved ..

Cheomesh
Patriotism to them is just being a loud-ass. It has nothing to do with the actual nation or its people.
Iwannaseeit
I'll go a bit of a different route that I think is more correct: they think it means supporting your (party's) president no matter what.
alisa2089
Their sense of what’s going on here n the world is very twisted atm. They have been convinced of conspiracy theories like the media is -
alisa2089
always lying to try and get Trump out of office. They’ve also been led to believe the left are doing extremely evil acts that will ruin the-
alisa2089
country. It’s like the flat-earthers or antivax crowd on crack. My mom is obsessed with Trump and I cannot stand it, bc she resorts to -
alisa2089
insults the second I try and gently explain that Trump isn’t the savior she thinks he is.
toouglyforporn
They would have to admit they were wrong, when people told them this is what would happen from the outset.
JustThePGTips
Because they hate Liberals even more than they "love America." They don't love America, they love the status quo. They're hypocrites.
GnomeDeGuerre
Because of the near complete isolation in own media bubble and de-education. Fear the tabloids.

ariafiresong
Pretty simple, in their eyes, it didn't happen. Trump rewrites the facts to fit their views, and they're so deep in that he can do no wrong.
margaretolson
It’s baffling to me. I have never followed a politician so blindly that s/he has been immune to criticism
ariafiresong
Nor have I. But we deal in facts in a world where the currency is opinion. Been a nasty four years and I really think it's time for a change
ariafiresong
The way he's acted in office is how he's been for years. It was a surprise to nobody that he didn't change.

GrandProtectorDark
A vote for trash
Joomuk
I do agree. We need to tell many conservatives to vote 3rd party. Trump has got to be the worse conservatives ever.

Guess im voting for Trump then. I dont like Biden enough to go out and vote for him, same for Trump but by your logic i guess im voting.

Hashbrown123
Yeah, do it for the other incompetent, selfish people on the other side.
DeathReaper7291
"make your voice heard, as long as it aligns with my views". Is essentially what you just said.
Oneeightfourthreesixfiveseventwo
I can see how I sound that way, but I'm not saying any one particular side. I'm very disappointed with both parties' actions right now.
DeathReaper7291
Exactly, so how do you choose from 2 candidates you dont love nor hate? I dont care enough about either 1 to want them to win over the other
Bigcurly2000
Let's say you had the choice between getting a kick in the shins, or getting the shit beaten out of you. You get to choose which one, but1/2
Bigcurly2000
If you refuse to choose then you may very well get the beating. Do you chose the lesser evil, or sit back and let others decide for you? 2/2
DeathReaper7291
I dont see either of them as the "lesser" evil. They are both shit in different aspects.
Bigcurly2000
Ok...you seriously think Biden is going to be as bad as 4 more years of this insanity? And the fact that Trump is actually getting worse?
DeathReaper7291
I really dont think Biden would do any better, than Trump is honestly. For the majority i dont think he could do a whole lot worse either 1/
ShootnStitch
I personally believe Trump should be executed for treason. He's done so many things against the constitution and the american people.
Othernate
Not a fan of capital punishment but he really needs to go on trial.
penzick
He did go on trial. And was acquitted as McConnell said he would be. Which is why he needs to go. We need to give the Senate to new dems.
Othernate
Technically true, I guess. But a jury of his cronies treats him very different than (hopefully) a regular court will.
penzick
It would be great to see him indicted once he leaves office. But for an impartial jury? We might need a time machine. Lol.
Othernate
Ugh yeah and he's got lawyers that are very good at wasting everyone's time. They can probably stall it out till he dies.
Darkspire
At his level the example needs to be set. He's done everything he can to destroy the country.

That sucks. I know my state has few state workers at the moment so it's hard to get stuff le ihis fixed.
CoBr2
My address has changed, but I won't update my registration because I might not get a new ID in time with all this shit :/
KillerTofu615
Change of address where i live they just mail you a little slip of paper to "keep with your ID"
Katz00
I not only check for that reason but for issues with party affiliation. There were some folks in KY who were Democrats but ended up with

Republican absentee ballot
BrazilianThunderPanda
Wait you have different ballots for different parties?
MioneMonster
If it’s a closed primary you can only vote for members of the party in which you’re registered.
GobertSchlong
Can you register for both? To influence the options you end up with?
MioneMonster
You may only register for one party. During the primary you may only vote for that party.
Cheomesh
In the Primaries, yes.
DarknessfillsmyheartwithpainTIMMAY
You guys are fucking nuts. You nominate an affiliation on the registry? So they know who you vote for? And you are 'affiliated'?
Katz00
Well, they checked their registration, as they were requesting absentee ballots. It said democratic on the website, but received the
Katz00
Republican ones. It got straightened out but still.
Nimafox
Dude what do you mean Republican ballot? Do you only get the Republican options?
DarknessfillsmyheartwithpainTIMMAY
It's got to be the same ballot, but with affiliated propoganda. So you elect to receive propaganda. By telling your government your vote.woh

It’s been reported that Trump knew and tried to do things in favor of Russia, like try to get them re-added to the g7
DrKriegersClone
The other six countries should have issued a joint statement that it's either a G7 or a G2 - it's up the the US.
EnTaroTassadar42
Correct
CeeSilver
US intelligence knew in March. Trump said he wasn't told, which seems HIGHLY unlikely.
Othernate
Very likely he didn't listen when he was told.
GadenKerensky
To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if he legitimately wasn't only because Intel Agencies figured it'd make the situation worse somehow.
Dionysus187
"Should we tell Trump?" "FUCK. NO. I guarantee he will do nothing to help the situation" Yeah, I can see that.
EnTaroTassadar42
It's not any less scary to think that US Intelligence community is keeping something SO IMPORTANT from the commander in chief
mormacil
It's a failure of Trump either way.
transientmind
Reckon he thought it was one of those things only the CIC is told, rather than something the CIC is told *first*, before others eventually?
Kovahjin
Given that Trump has shown so much active disdain for intelligence services, if he wasn't told I'd just assume they knew he wouldn't do-
Kovahjin
-anything about it even if he did know. But most likely he was told and ignored it.
