GOP senators only there to create dysfunction and block

[butters]

this New Hampshire governor, Chris Sununu (R) (one of the GOP’s top recruitment targets for the 2022 Senate midterms) actually wants to WORK for his area, so chose not to run for senate position after speaking with gopers about how they do their jobs:

New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu (R), who was one of the GOP’s top recruitment targets for the 2022 Senate midterms, was “pretty close” to throwing his hat into the race — until he found out his only purpose in the Senate would be to help Republicans keep the whole chamber dysfunctional.

Sununu told the Washington Examiner in an interview published on Tuesday that before he ultimately made the decision not to run against Sen. Maggie Hassan (D-NH), he had spoken to most of the members of the Senate GOP to learn more about the job.

The senators’ descriptions apparently amounted to “LOL what job?”

“They were all, for the most part, content with the speed at which they weren’t doing anything,” Sununu told the Examiner. “It was very clear that we just have to hold the line for two years.”

“OK, so I’m just going to be a roadblock for two years,” he continued. “That’s not what I do.”

I guess they were waiting for Trump to tell them what to do, and he never did.

Yep, critics shouldn't castigate Manchin or Senna without, in the same sentence, noting that there are fifty Republicans standing against fair voting laws and economic and medical relief, and they are doing so without accepting any responsibility for providing other answers to the problems.

This in no way is a Biden administration fail. It is a Republican failure to accept responsibility to govern and the Covid issue is a nonvaxers' failure of taking social responsibility. And in November, if the Republicans take control, it will be a voters' failure to give the Biden administration a governing capability.

Democrats "Republicans are in lock step opposing our bills! Obstructionists!"

Also Democrats "A couple of Democrats didn't vote in lock step with us on these bills! Traitors!"

And both statements are literally true.

One word: Bipartisan support. Ok, 2 words.

"Bipartisan support" is a fiction nowadays.

"Bipartisan support" is a fiction nowadays.

Because Democrats are partisan by nature.

None other than Mitch McConnell helped pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill.

The Republicans are there to do what they were elected to do. Don’t like it, fuck off, dipshit!

Well, we all experimented with bipartisanship in college, it ain't a life choice or nuttin'.

Dem have shown far greater willingness than Pubs have to reach across the aisle and compromise, at all times since 1994. Failure to reach compromises is entirely the Pubs' fault. And you know it.

Yeah, Reichguide, why bother projecting on that one when the obstruction is the whole point and you obviously support it?
