Twitter is being flooded with people declaring that McCarthy's "concessions" promised the MAGA maniacs he'd abolish social security and Medicare and default on the debt ceiling.
That's not how government works. They can't pass laws without the Senate. Many Rs and all Ds oppose a default. If Kevin refuses to let a bipartisan bill to the floor, he can be bypassed via discharge petition - as one R rep already publicly reminded him.
I don't have the energy to get into this with people on twitter.
Save your breath. Anyone left on #twitter is not interested in rational discussion of bipartisan issues. It’s entirely about outrage, chaos and hate speech.
@LnzyHou Or in this case fatalistic despair-mongering.
@LnzyHou Yup. It's impossible to get through to people who are motivated not to listen.
Why try? Who cares?
