Does feel like there's no more than 24 hrs left for constituents to make their views clear to senators. Get contrary signals. But the ones this afternoon make me think Senate Dems are moving into throwing up their hands mode. Seemed different this morning. Maybe playacting for constituents.
Comments
they think this’ll win over a margin of moderate voters 18 months from now, or longer for some senators?
Authoritarians often take over the capital city to squash dissent. This is bigger than stealing $1 billion from DC taxpayers.
Play-acting for constituents --- to what pole? And a feint or play acting to do what exactly?
Bernie Moreno has been sending out the same condescending form reply to any contact attempts.
Since the Democratic Party has abandoned taking a position of leadership, someone else should take it. We should not follow those who can't be clear with the American people.
Lies or opacity is no choice.

Warnock seemed no-vote-adjacent tonight without actually saying it.
They’re usually pretty synced-up.
I’ll be shocked if he votes yes.
I actually like those two so I hope -but who knows right now.
Warner’s ignoring us.

Infuriating
10 randos off the street have more understanding of and fealty to this country than Dem electeds put together.
Better get started.

One fear that nobody will say is if Senate does reject and there is a shutdown, there will not be a shutdown per say. They will just keep open what they want to.
If this isn't on their minds, they are nuts.

Dont be asses
If u vote for the cruel GOP CR bill to keep the government open the lunatic prez & his chainsaw guy will continue to refuse to spend the money you just voted for to punish his perceived “enemies” - which includes their YOUR constituents.

only direct donations—especially to primary challengers to those who cave
Read to the end. (I’m relieved, too, though unfortunately my MI senators are far less principled.)

Making it stick as the dems fault would be impressive.
The dems do need to get out there calling it the trump recession. The trump shutdown. Etc, though.
They need get a really simple message and hammer it over and over until even fox news covers it.
Be a MAsshole!
All the cool kids are doing it!
