To be fair: it’s all the Republicans casting the deciding vote. She doesn’t have any special powers that makes her vote count more than the rest. The difference is that she’s occasionally not-shitty and so she gets a lot of attention as a maybe.
Like: Rick Scott also cast these deciding votes, but everyone already expected that he’d be a shit so he doesn’t get any flak for it.
Her vote as a US Senator counts more. That is exactly how representational government works
you doofsorry.In what way, exactly, does her vote as a US senator count more than another US senator’s vote?
Feel free to use simple language if you feel I need it.
She’s cosplaying a moderate while sucking that federal teet something fierce. Since Alaska relies so heavily on federal funding, and that funding is at the whim of whatever geriatric rich white fuck is currently inhabiting the oval office, Alaska senators probably have to placate them more than other senators. I think its chicken shit, and I think that Murkowski specifically is chicken shit for the damage she’s causing to the country all so Alaska can keep collecting those big federal checks.
Money is my guess
Nah, they got kompromat on her. Bribery will get you some baubles but it’s too voluntary and you can always get outbid. You gotta get coercive if you really want to own someone’s soul.
According to the CIA, kompromat is also a less ideal way to influence someone because they eventually get exhausted and conclude the consequences are less painful than the control, and defect.
The most reliable way is to make them a true believer.
That’s why Kirk’s death is so gutting to the right: He was an excellent propagandist who specialized in influencing impressionable people.
Hopefully she will get Kirked.
Fuck off if you’re a Russian shill or edgy teen. I want her to be humiliated out of a job, but Kirking out your opponents isn’t a solution now.
Nah if you’re fine with saying Luigi’d but not “kirked” then you’re a hypocrite and not worth having a discussion with.
…who said I said that? I don’t care what you call it, I’m talking about the action.
I have no problem with people who have caused untold amounts of death and suffering having death called upon them back. I do not understand why you would even argue that.
Because the internet is a place with consequences. I think we need some time to see what actually happened.
