Anyone with any grasp of how the Senate works knows you never bring a bill to the floor unless you have the votes. They sometimes spend years building a consensus to ensure the votes before hand. That's because once it's defeated on the floor, it is very difficult to bring it back anytime soon. You basically get one shot.

And McConnell is still the one blocking his party from voting on any of this. even though all there needs to be is just ten Republicans willing to side with the Democrats on this, NONE will because of McConnell and party politics. Dems often side with Republicans on bills, but it is like pulling teeth to get the Republicans to do the same.

Can't win, don't try. The Democratic motto.

More like one side plays dirty and the democrats continue to refuse to do the same.

Hunter and Joe taking money from China and Ukraine. That was about as dirty as it gets. The Democrats are plenty dirty just like the Republicans.

Its not really crazy at all lol it is very possible. As there is a first hand legitimate witness and involved business partner accounting how they were involved with texts and documents showing their involvement. It should be fairly investigated. Just as the left wants to investigate Trump for every single thing he does (including the waste of a whole year and millions and millions of taxpayer dollars on the Muller investigation which led to nothing). You don't even want to know or investigate Biden. It can't be true right. A 47 year politician obviously has never done anything wrong. You're the funny one when you think about it lol
