A Butt-Kicking Current Events

pretty much true. They got nothing beyond a temporary lifting of the debt ceiling. Democrats got worked, plain and simple. And now Democrats need to deliver the votes.

Well, first of all, for Democrats NOT to support Biden on this would be to completely throw him under the bus. It would be virtually conceding the 2024 general election. It would be the ultimate vote of no-confidence. From his own party, no less. I doubt that he could survive electorally.

Second, Democrats would be rightly blamed for shutting down the government. And Republicans would hammer the ever-living crap out of them for it. They would for sure lose the the Senate, and very likely lose the Presidency, as well.

McCarthy has played his cards very well, indeed.
