That's funny, I diagnosed you with something else. :hurhur:

 

https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/narcissistic-personality-disorder/symptoms-causes/syc-20366662

 

Symptoms of narcissistic personality disorder and how severe they are can vary. People with the disorder can:

  • Have an unreasonably high sense of self-importance and require constant, excessive admiration.
  • Feel that they deserve privileges and special treatment.
  • Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements.
  • Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are.
  • Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate.
  • Believe they are superior to others and can only spend time with or be understood by equally special people.
  • Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important.
  • Expect special favors and expect other people to do what they want without questioning them.
  • Take advantage of others to get what they want.
  • Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others.
  • Be envious of others and believe others envy them.
  • Behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot and come across as conceited.
  • Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office

 

Oh Joey.  What am I going to do with you?   :frantic:

So, technically they did and Kamala was the tie breaker.  Manchin is a Democrat is he not?  Not the Republicans fault that Sinema jumped ship to be an Independent...

Do you have any interest in having an honest conversation? Manchins stonewalling is well documented. Not to mention the Republican filibusters.

Manchin seems to primarily be a grandstanding fool regardless of affiliation. Sinema loves him.  Two atypical politicians regardless of party.

 

BTW - Just what horse do you have in this race?  Is it because Trump is so smart that he never pays taxes?  Because your Canadian political opponents tend to favour Harris and you love to piss us off?

Apparently I am a smug prick. So yes, I just love to piss you off.  😉

Is it the fault of the Republicans if some Democrats are Democrats in name only?  Why do Manchin’s constituents keep voting him in if all he does is stonewall?  Same with Sinema. She literally left the Democratic Party. Why did she leave?  Was she really a Democrat?  
 

If these so called Democrat Senators were truly Democrats, they would have helped Biden do more things. It’s called politics for a reason. Everyone has an agenda.

The Democrats didn't control all 3 branches of government in 2021 and 2022?

Lemme know how Manchin and Sinema actually did anything to help the party at all.

 

You know this.  You absolutely know they essentially had a tie and these two individuals did everything they could to essentially enrich their own position as opposed to helping the party.  So to say they controlled everything is basically just a load and you know it mate.  That kind of misinformed lie works on the ill educated who support individuals like Trump and Pierre but doesn't fly among people that can count past 21 without needing to be naked and using digits to do so

A little research would tell you Manchin and Sinema are not true Democrats. Sinema is now independent and Manchin considered it before he decided not to run in 2024. 

 

(If you as smart as you have recently told us you are why are you asking the same question over and over with just a few different words?   Is this the piss us off part?)

Manchin helped vote in all the democrat judges, so there's that. Otherwise he was the best option from an extremely red state. No democrat other than him had any chance of winning. 

 

Democrats haven't had a proper senate since 2015 or so when Americans got sick and tired of having Obama's great economy.
