I know a ton of people that were excited about Harris, not necessarily because it was Harris but because she would be more energetic and bold than Biden and had a proven track record of being more progressive as a senator and also in her 2020 campaign Seems like there are bots on all sides

One of Harris's first tests as VP was raising the minimum wage. The Dems had just enough votes to do it, but the parliamentarian said not to. She could have just fired the parliamentarian but instead let a minor roadblock get in the way. Bot bold, not progressive. Just more of the same BS. 👎

I don't agree with that take. I would have sooner expected the dems to modify or eliminate the filibuster than to fire the parliamentarian because that would have been the less destructive path to pushing things through. Something the dems absolutely should have done.
