My patience with Senate Republicans has run out, and I guess I am not the only one.
To this end, please recall that members of the Republican Party including Senators Mitt Romney, Rob Portman and Lisa Murkowski have been eager to conclude a “deal” on the infrastructure bill.Those negotiations are Bombed by Joe Biden many times, Including the president’s admission that he will not sign the so-called compromise unless he gets everything he wants through budget reconciliation. As I pointed out at the time, it’s like giving someone your car and promising that they won’t take your house—it’s just that they insist on taking your house anyway.
In that case, you interrupt the negotiation and tell the other party to make trouble. After all, if they are going to screw you up anyway, why let them hide under the cover of a bipartisan bill? At least let the Democrats have the idiot that causes inflation. However, the Republicans did not do so.Instead, Mitt Romney and others Say they trust Biden, Continue to negotiate.
As if sprinkling salt on the wound, and then the Democrats Officially announced a $3.5 trillion settlement plan last week. At that time, it was obvious that they were dishonest participants, and any infrastructure transaction was meaningless. Of course, Republicans will wake up and leave eventually, right?
Obviously, the answer is no. Instead, Republicans are eager to prove that they are absolute idiots, pushing for the completion of the “compromise” bill before the arbitrary deadline set by Senator Chuck Schumer.

Honestly, I am at a loss at this point. It’s one thing for these Republican members to be attracted for the first time.But for them, at least they have to be attracted Four times There are a lot of questions about this. Why did Rob Portman and his colleagues try to complete the deal if the Democrats really told them they would not honor the agreement and would get everything they wanted in a few months?
This is a rare political idiot. This is also an act of malfeasance that will cost the Republican Party in 2022. Republican voters don’t want to see Republican senators prove that they have mushy thorns. On the contrary, they want to see smart opposition oppose the excessive expansion of the Democratic Party. The worst thing that can happen here is that Republicans provide bipartisan support to Democrats. You won’t give your political opponents that kind of gift when they wield the knife they promised to stab you.
However, this seems to be exactly what Portman and other Republican senators want to do. Does this sound like something that will inspire Republican voters next year? As i wrote beforeIf the Republican Party cannot become a legitimate opposition party under the leadership of a radical president like Joe Biden, then they have no reason to exist. During an inflation crisis, you don’t need to make a transaction of more than $1 trillion with the other party. When the other party promises to pass the $3.5 trillion budget settlement plan anyway, you certainly don’t need to do that.
I guess they call it Stupid party But there is a reason.
