GOP Rep Cheerfully Takes Credit For BIF After Voting Against It

Not on Fox News and elsewhere. TFFFG has already made the claim that this was supposed to happen in his administration, but McConnell blah, blah, blah. This will, by next year, morph into Donald Trump saved you from COVID by inventing the vaccine you refuse to take and he alone brought you infrastructure and, and… Joe Biden bad… people who say nice things about TFFFG good.

Duly Noted: Rep. Diaz-Balart #FL25 and Rep. Gimenez #FL26 have no real answer for their constituents on why they're against creating jobs and investing in FL roads, bridges, transit, broadband, ports, etc., that Mitch McConnell and nearly 40% of Republican Senators supported. pic.twitter.com/rcLU6vjGQC

GOPs:

  1. I was for the Infrastructure Bill.
  2. I voted against the Infrastructure Bill.
  3. Look how the Infrastructure Bill will help you.
  4. Yay ME!

It’s quantum superpositional support. His position depends on who is observing.

Especially if they are different from you and get government assistance, the same kind of assistance that they don’t need or qualify for.

The sad thing is his local media won’t point out his hypocrisy.

Maybe have a golden shovel award like the a golden duke. For the dicks first in line at the groundbreaking of projects they voted against.

Look, it’s simple…

He un-revoked his revocation of his support for his non-support of his revocation of support.

Do try and keep up.

All those Rock solid Red districts? Reps like this clown, and all the others that weren’t just against it, but Inflation, Communism, Socialism, Chinese-ism, whatever screeching arguments they made in opposition, that hypocrisy should be what they hear and what their district hears, every day.

Just remember folks, if a Congressman lies in the forest and nobody hears it, it ain’t a lie.

His district needs to know, and I don’t care how Maga stupid they are, that he/she/it fought against this infrastructure project tooth and nail, this project that will benefit you, the fine people of our district, with jobs and tax revenue and better and safer and faster transportation and drinking water and broadband etc, and he voted against it and now he’s trying to take credit for it, and that just isn’t how it works. You don’t want it, you fought it, you voted “No,” you don’t get credit, in fact, you get blame for turning against the people of your district.

Yes. Timing is all. Start it in the near time. Really shout it from the housetops as we approach the '22 elections.

Don’t disagree with this, but I’d prefer to see some tangible results therefrom (roads paved, long-overdue bridges repaired, etc.), without which the GQP can more easily harp on the canard about those spendy Dems. Especially now that the inflation bogeyman has been prised out of his grave… :roll_eyes:

Insulting to pigs.

Nevertheless, it is remarkable the degree to which being a Republican means being a shyster and whiner, a brazen liar and fascist, every one of them a coward.

No one ounce of shame. His defense? ‘I would have been ALL OVER the infrastructure bill people if it wasn’t those damn DEMOCRATS that proposed it!’

He’ll be re-elected. Hypocrisy is lost on the red caps. Bet he’s a good Christian,though.

You would think ‘good Christian’ would be redundant, but no.

More like an oxymoron, really.
