re: #27 thedopefishlives

When it looked like the R’s would maintain a majority in the Senate I thought we might get a chance to test the idea that the VP is the President of the Senate and can overrule McConnell. The VP usually defers to the Pro Tempore during normal business in the Senate. Somehow McConnell perverted his role as Pres Pro Tempore into blocking all debate and voting on the floor that he did not agree with. I don’t see how this is constitutional. With a Dem VP, McConnell should not have been able to act the same way.
With the way Georgia went we won’t have this situation for now.
