Let them blame Republicans all they want. They have the majority they need without the Republicans' help. They're just pissed they can't convince their own party this is good for America.
This. It seems often to me that we keep hearing about how elections have conquenses (in my mind they only do to those people who get fired not those who kept their jobs) and how they have a mandate of the people with their supermajority. Yet they still can't seem to pass this bill, and it's somehow all the republicans fault.
However I think the truth is a lot of people on both sides are realizing hey the constituents don't want this and they are actually willing to hold a grudge against me next cycle if I vote for it.
