Senate GOP Picks Up Where It Left Off..

.. sabotaging Biden like they did Obama.

Mitch 'Grim Reaper' McConnell is back at it again trying everything he can to stop Biden in his tracks. The same way he did while Obama held office.

If you recall the GOP inserted almost 200 amendments into the 'Affordable Care Act' causing it to be almost 700 pages long. Even after Obama semi-agreed to them NOT ONE SINGLE Republican voted in favor of it. Now they're at it again. This time with double the amendments.

Senate GOP led by Mitch McConnell to force votes on COVID-19 relief bill
"Senate Republicans led by Minority Leader Mitch McConnell are preparing to force an all-night series of votes Thursday on COVID-19 relief, including on thorny issues such as yanking funds from schools that won’t reopen and allowing the construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline to continue... A grueling debate on up to 400 Senate amendments will begin Thursday afternoon."

In essence these are 'poison pills' being inserted into the bill which will make impossible to pass. I'm of the mind you can't reason with the GOP. No matter if you give up 10 things they'll demand 10 more delaying passage till time expires on the bill. They only understand one thing...Democrats must be defeated at all cost in every turn even if comes at the expense to the country. Compromise is not in their vocabulary. What bunch of swell folks.

Biden made it very clear he doesn't expect to get everything he wants but this kind of crap is surreal. It benefits no one. Just two weeks into Biden's presidency and already they're starting this garbage again. It's more then clear the GOP's intentions are going to repeat doing what they've always done.. fight like hell to destroy the Democratic party. The problem with this kind of thinking is, if this president fails so does the country. Our adversaries couldn't do a better job under minding us Disgusting!

Republican Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell sums it up in 2010

A leopard doesn't change it's spots.
He hasn't changed one bit.
The goals remain the same.
