So somebody responds to my final tweets that went into the last thread, and completely misses what I was responding to, apparently…

Reread the first part, where Cruz and Hawley are out on their arses until such time as their governors decide that the Senate isn’t going to back down on bouncing them, and thus appoint their replacements. THAT’s when it’ll be 50-48, and Manchin can’t block new states.
