This just showcases how unserious the Rs are about conservative values. There’s like 20 Rs that are holding up the show, and they’ve asked for a few things that, at least on the surface don’t seem so unreasonable. They want floor votes on a balanced budget, border security, and probably a few other things. They know many won’t pass, but they want the votes on record (which of course is why McCarty doesn’t want those votes). If it were the Ds making comparable demand you know damn well McCarty et, al would fold in heartbeat in the name of bi-partisanship.
