I assume the first sentence was sarcasm, but yeah, this is one of those pure-politics votes that are only meant to injure Democratic candidates by ensuring either the “left” or “centrist” parts of the party are angry at the result.
These people are pretty much all from universally purple swing districts and made a political calculation on a purely political vote.

Oh give it a rest. More than half of the Democrats voted against it. Not a single republican voted no.
Nope, they are precisely, exactly, to the 5th significant digit, the same.
Honestly though, it was a trap. Vote yes and you’re thanking ice, vote no and you are worse than Hitler. There should have been more abstention votes.

Ahh, yes, that was the issue - sarcasm in 2025 Internet begins at the seventh decimal point.
Precisely.
Oh shit, now the Internet tough guy is gonna punch you in the mouth!
