"...the 2021 Democratic majorities are on a “death watch,” and Democrats’ confused attempts to deal with that realization is determining their current erratic behavior. The split in the party is not so much between the moderates and the progressives. It is between progressives and moderates who desire political futures and those who know they have none. Pelosi is able to generally pass left-wing legislation in the House despite her narrow majority because many of her moderates know they are doomed no matter what, and are willing to cast their votes for the progressive agenda. In turn, AOC and the Squad feel free to sabotage any compromises because their own seats are safe and they believe they have time to fight another day, even if it is ten years from now. By contrast, both Sinema and Manchin seem to resent the efforts of other Democrat officials to pressure them to commit political suicide or behave as if they personally are doomed, just because it is true of some of their colleagues. In particular, rhetoric out of the Democrat caucus that Manchin is “probably in his last term anyway” or that Sinema “won’t win reelection” seems predicated on the idea that both should act as if they are finished and behave accordingly."

The guy in the upper right looks like he is demonstrating how to be handcuffed.

Wowsa said earlier today to someone that I consider it a real possibility - should have bet! Would be awesome if he switched, telling the deranged leftoids ganging up on him to fuck off - flip that seat!

Everybody is ganging up on him and he's the sole voice of reason. Also he may get re-elected by his constituents and no longer suffer the popularity-losing effects from the ongoing trainwreck dembacle.
