Poor Mitch McConnell




So McConnell and republicans said they wouldn’t pass chips if reconciliation was alive.

They passed chips

Dems revived reconciliation hours after chips passed.

He has no heart. He has an organ that moves that brown-black goo through his circulatory system, but he doesn't have a heart.

being the old trickster he is. Still he let chips pass. Wonder why? Wouldn't play well in a midterm election year? Dems have enough ammo as it is?
