re: #201 Myron Falwell

Mitch refused a vote on a CR without TEH WALL for damn near a month because he knew it would pass and humiliate both him and Trump. That he even put a wall-less CR up for a vote sounds almost like he’s caving, not Schumer.

Whatever passes the Senate will immediately face reconciliation with the House CR. Assuming that the CR with TEH WALL is passed by the Senate, and reconciliation strips out TEH WALL, it’s resubmitted to Mitch.

So will Mitch be smart and take the fucking exit ramp out of this disaster Trump refuses to take when THAT wall-less CR is resubmitted, or will he make it even worse by stonewalling again?

If Mitch is caving - I’ll be happy to eat my words. He hasn’t backed down for the past 10 years - so guess I have my doubts.
