    Taking bets now: Which Democrat is gonna be the single deciding vote that blocks this?

      The article explains that he measure needs 60 votes, meaning at least nine republicans.

        Tuberville is right about one thing. The maga base is going to go after senators that vote against his little abortion blockade because they’re stupid as Fuck. But they’re also fanatical about pretending to support the military while doing nothing to actually support them. So they’re also going to face heat the more they go against these promotions.

        It’s Schrödingers fascist paradox. They’ve boxed themselves into these culture wars topics and now have no proper outlet. They need to remain pro military no matter what but must also harm the military by being anti abortion no matter what.

        These chicken shit needle dick politicians are scared shitless about what will happen if they are perceived as anti maga so they are paralyzed by fear. We all suffer for their stupidity.

        Right. So if we get 9 Republicans (It’ll be exactly 9 if we do, since as few as possible are going to risk the wrath of the base), we’ll see one turncoat Democrat.

        Of course, I’d be happy to be wrong, but it’s not like Senate Democrats have provided me with an abundance of reasons to be optimistic.
