I have to agree with how pernicious the Republican Party is today and has been for a long time.
They are the most anti-democratic party. And I think that’s very bad for our democracy.
This is not a bill that we can pass through reconciliation like we did the Relief Act. So this immediately brings to question the filibuster.
The longer they refuse to acknowledge that Joe Biden won fairly, the more Republican base will buy into the fiction that this was rigged, and that undermines democracy, and that causes lasting damage.
