    And a job he is doing very well by blocking all the Democrat BS legislation from wasting the Senates time.

    As I stated that's a good thing as the 90% of the legislation they are proffering should never see the light of day.

    That's why the system is designed as it is, it prevents in this case anti-U.S. socialists from shoving their agenda upon the law abiding hard working citizens of the U.S.

    So which is it, are people going to be angry at them because they haven’t passed legislation (which they have, it’s just been blocked) or are they going to be mad that the people they elected are having their bills blocked?

    You can’t have it both ways...
    Your narrative isn’t sound

    Well fine.... it's out there, but that fully removes your failed argument about the House... They're doing something, vs the nothingness of the McConnell Senate...

    The narrative is quite sound, the only people who might get upset by the blocking in the Senate is the Democrat base, those who support the blocking are the Republican base and the ND's when their tax's get shoved through the roof to pay for all of the socialist crap the Democrats are proffering.

    The Democrats are pushing themselves into a corner by promising what the country cannot afford in return for votes and the ND's are catching on to that.

    All the Democrats left with are the gimmies who make up their base, mostly non-working or low wage government teat suckers and the ultra wealthy, they pissed away the middle class workers back when Obama was in charge and that includes a majority of the ND's.

    So first you said “the problem is the Democrats have yet to deliver a single campaign promise they made to those UD's, preferring to howl impeachment at the moon versus getting anything substantial passed.” And then “[Mitch McConnell is] doing very well by blocking all the Democrat BS legislation from wasting the Senates time.

    Those two items contradict one another.

    Your narrative isn’t sound.

    Only in your mind, the Democrats are tossing crap at a wall hoping their base will blame the Senate for blocking it, versus demanding the House write up some serious legislation, their playing their base like the people they are.

    Only problem with that theory is Trump rallies are held in the evenings knowing his base has a job, they are workers, unlike the Democrat welfare mooches who attend their daytime rallies.

    Don't understand civics do you, one third cannot write legislation and the other third, the House refuses to write good legislation, that leaves the Senate nothing to vote on.

    You get it?

    Yeh, totally logical.

    Sarcasm in case you couldn’t tell, you can’t even seem to be able to reconcile your own arguments so I doubt you can understand anyone else’s.

    Mitch refusing to floor bills leaves nothing for the Senate to vote on, the house did their job and Mitch isn’t letting the Senate do theirs. What’s he afraid of?

    In a rational world, RESULTS COUNT, and results are the difference between accomplishing something and doing something.

    Truth be told, I don't know if Dims are in a quandary with their base or not. The base may be perfectly content watching Democrats conduct their partisan ideological circle jerks that everyone knows the Senate won't consider. In that case Dims don't have any problems.

    However, if the base expects them to accomplish something, Dims are in quandary because they're not cranking bipartisan legislation out of the House that the Senate will consider and pass and Trump will sign into law.

    Personally, given that the base appears to dominated by strident ideologues and there doesn't appear to be any pressure on Pelosi to produce results, I think the Wanker Left is content with satisfying itself.

    McConnell has already said the Senate is going to be focused on passing judicial nominations instead of doing the House's bidding.

    When Pelosi & Co. can pass bipartisan legislation that is worth the Senate's time then McConnell & Co. will consider them. In the meantime, House Dems can continue playing to the ideologues in their base and passing partisan legislation for itself.

    That’s fine but the two items cannot be reconciled. If people elected new house members to pass legislation that they felt was important how is it the fault of the house that the senate refuses to even floor a vote? If voters would have wanted the legislation the senate is pushing they would have left the house leadership alone.

    If voters wanted the legislation the House is pushing they wouldn't have given Republicans a majority in the Senate. See what I did there?

    How is it the Senate's fault that Pelosi & Co. can't craft and pass bipartisan legislation?

    It's not, so as long as House Dems keep playing to the ideologues in their base and passing partisan legislation for itself then McConnell will remain focused on filling seats on the courts. It is what it is...

    The inverse of everything you just posted is also true.
