Rattner: 'A Huge Amount At Stake' For Congress To Get Something Done | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Moscow Mitch does not care about the suffering of the Americans, he demonstrated it during Obama’s presidency!
You say Mitch doesn’t care about the people. Will you puke people don’t care how you hurt other people to get what you want. Like what you’re doing illegally stealing my money. That is not right but government is doing a very bad thing. They can’t do this no one is above the law. What they are doing is crooked and Evil.
Working Americans are doing great, still a workers market, I bought a 2nd house working a factory job. Trump powerhouse economy!
Mitch McConnell is the devil.
He is evil.
WRONG ! Mitch works for the devil. I am sure the letter T is somewhere in the bible.,
I’d be hard pressed to indicate who was worse–Donald Trump or Mitch McConnell. Both are simply EVIL and immoral glops of goo. Slime balls. I’d probably end up picking McConnell, though, because he’s likely smarter than Donald Trump (whose intellect leaves a great deal to be desired).
Can’t stand this mechanical creature!
We should be focused on those in need right now, not the insane clown show.
Yep I couldn’t agree anymore…. Maybe stick them politicians on a minimum wage until they get bills passed and I bet we wouldn’t wait long at all.
TC
@Ryan Odonnell I agree with you. Unfortunately the rich Republicans use their paychecks to pay off their mistresses. They really do not need the paycheck. Itโs just chump change for them!
Mitch is still BLOCKING stimulus even while America is BURNING DOWN. Kentucky, this is your fault that this man is still able to do this.
@Maggie Hubbard Don’t blame the voters, when the minority vote is being suppressed. Jim Crow lives in Kentucky.
@KesArt And that blame lies at the feet of elections officials, happy to do everything they can, to suppress the votes of poor and black people.
@KesArt If one gerrymanders all the people you don’t want to vote into one district; then only have one polling place, that closes at 6 pm, in that district, gerrymandering can suppress the vote. And that is exactly what happened in Kentucky.
@Helen Farriot I’m with you on that…stay STRONG. We’re gonna pull through these trying times. Be BLESSED
@Deborah Freedman Gerrymandering only applies to House races and not to Senate contests. If a party wishes to tilt a race in their favor, then they employ voter suppression measures, such as drastically reducing the number of polling places. Venality knows no bounds.
Republican Senators Don’t Deserve to Keep Power in the Senate, Georgia Must Fix that!
I agree,they have become power greedy and currupt,abusing their power too like mitch is doing.
So you think your democrats care about you ?
@Bob Davidson it’s absolutely obvious that they care for the people more than Mitch and the Republicans do. Or are you not paying an ounce of attention. Mitch hasn’t hid the FACT that he has refused to do anything for the people at a minimum the day obama took office. He has REFUSED to put over 400 bills that the house has passed up for a vote and that this just this year. He is only there for corporate donors and packing the courts. Every single day the Republicans PROVE that they don’t care about the american people at all. All politicians are not doing enough for their constituents but the Republicans are openly and brazenly proving that they don’t care about every day citizens more than anyone else.
I wouldn’t count on it. The Orange Disaster is trying to sabotage America, unfortunately.
Trying???
So what policy’s do you like that the democrats have that will benefit all hard working Americans and retirees?
Or you just hating.
@Bob Davidson Watch the video, you see all the programs that help the American people who are hardest hit by the pandemic, well those programs are great, and so are the new programs like getting money to state and local governments to help with the costs of the pandemic, all the small business loans, etc. etc., unfortunately Mitch McConnell wants to take away the rights of American workers to sue companies who put them in harms way. So why do you hate the American workers? Also, in general the dems want to build infrastructure, make healthcare and education more affordable and accessible, build high-speed internet throughout America, and transform our energy production to clean, green, and safe, and cheap sources. Moving away from coal and fossil fuels to solar and wind and geothermal as well as hydro and nuclear for a sustainable future. Here’s a question for you, what policies do you agree with that are put forward by the GOP? Because I’ve never heard a single republican that can answer that question, not one!
@Bob Davidson there’s so many that you’re being willfully blind if you have to ask. Im not your teacher and don’t care about your ignorance ๐คทโโ๏ธ
That’s why it is so Important that Georgia turns those Two Senate Seats Blue.
Than there won’t be any B.S.trying to pass legislation that needs to be passed.
No Sh*t !
Why are we pinning our hopes not a Republican state? Isn’t this the definition of failure.?
Should all of the signatories behind the Texas law suit be expelled from Congress…look into it Mr Biden.
Pelosi would have to do and yes, it’s in The Constitution that she can do it..
YES! One of those reps is my “representative”. Believe me when I say, he does NOT represent me in any way, shape, or form. I hope he is expelled from Congress forever. If I had my way, not only would he e expelled from Congress, he’d go to jail for sedition and treason.
Moscow Mitch is trying to destroy economy and country for Biden administration. It’s well known Republican tradition. #moscowmitch
Sure is!! That’s why he kept blocking everything Obama was trying to do!!!
@Dam DEVA McConnell “The Turtle Face” has made “The American People” go into “Bankruptcy & Eviction & Financial Hardships” ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ McConnell DON’T give a Shyt about nobody but his “Rich Follower’s” that’s why they already received some “Financial Support” so I guess All of Us “Middle Class & Disabled & VA & Small Businesses & Schools & Hospitals/Emergency Responders & UIB” just don’t matter ๐ฅ ๐ ๐ I’m Praying ๐ that SOMETHING HAPPENS SOON” and We “ALL” get some kind of Direct Payments ๐ฐ before Christmas ๐ or before December 30th ๐

They keep decreasing the bill because the Senate is being cheap smh wow
American people who did their duty and voted need to get a stimulus check immediately. And what about the Billions Mnuchin tried to hide?
Mnuchin is quite literally a rich kid who somehow thinks he can take his money with him when he dies.
Did he really say spring was the worst of this?? These people are so out of touch
I truly believe trump told Mitch not to pass stimulus checks if he lost!!!, That’s how petty they are!!!
I also believe that.
Yes I think that’s why. Trump and McConnell are evil with no moral compass.
In order to take control of yhe Senate from Mitch & Graham, we have to help the two Democrats in Georgia win. Either by voting or donating.
Politicians get holiday break, good salaries, perks, travel expenses, great health care! ….. and the people get sh*t
@Kimberly Morris yeah also a good pension after serving a few years! Wtf. I think every American should at the Least get the same health care as the politicians in Washington
Wall St. is the only thing that gets McConnell passing bills. If the stock markets crashed today, relief would pass tomorrow.

Can’t get relief to Americans for over 3 months yet they can confirm a judge in 3 weeks. Makes sense.
Why do the people who voted for Mitch HATE this Country so much?
Because they live in Kentucky…
No rush for Moscow Mitch- he will rather cause destruction to President Biden than to help Americans.
If congress goes to holiday break without passing this desperately needed support they all deserve to be fired .
