@NateSilver538 hard for Congress to do something that difficult months before they have to. bi-partisan Senate vote out of the question. to do w/Ds only, have to use budget process to create reconciliation vehicle. eats up lots of time and only works w/all 50 Ds on board, which was doubtful — PolitiTweet.org

fundamental difference: RBG's retirement decision was entirely within her control if raising debt limit had been within control of Pelosi and Schumer, they'd have done it but in a 50-50 Senate, without Republican help, it wasn't — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats had a good legislative term in 2022 but not passing a debt ceiling increase could be an RBG-not-retiring magnitude blunder.

@JamesSurowiecki being in theory for something is not the same as doing what's necessary to get it done Sinema and Manchin were also for voting rights legislation - it was Manchin's bill but they wouldn't ditch filibuster to pass it Manchin opposed raising debt limit w/Dems only reconciliation — PolitiTweet.org
