Odd comment by Susan Collins

[senseandsensibility]

The reporter on MSNBC said that Collins voted to let the bill proceed but she wants the tax rate for upper income people to be higher.
Unfortunately, he did not give a lot of details and did not quote Collins exactly. But he seemed to imply strongly that she would vote no if this demand wasn't met.

I mean the chances of this happening are zero and nada. Why set herself up for that when she is obviously going to fold? Very strange.

1. Is she concerned?

😂😂😂

[Swede]

7. She's in severe frown mode.

8. LOL

14. She and Lisa Murkowski are having a "Concern" party.

Anyone is free to attend and register their concern. Backbones must be checked at the door.

16. You win!

Best response possible!

[malaise]

17. LOL

2. Just giving herself something to be concerned about

She’s such a craven embarrassment

[Attilatheblond]

4. Giving herself the thin shelter of a soundbite

[newdeal2]

3. She probably wants a vote on her amendment(s)

Which they will grant and probably vote down. Ultimately she will vote for it though.

9. It seems that Murkowski tried something similar

Got some kind of exception for Alaska put in overnight, but it's already been overruled by the Parliamentarian. So sad for her.

5. Has she heard from Trump about his thoughts (aka threats) of her being primatied yet.

[RandomNumbers]

6. She wants to fake out the handful of her constituents she can still fake out

"well I tried ..."

[mercuryblues]

10. She is tanking in the polls.

That is what her real concern is.

This is her fake concern. Upset about something- says she tried to fix it-votes for it anyhow.

11. Collins has played the bullshit game for years and by now it's the only one she knows.

[Vinca]

12. She'll wring her hands and be concerned and then fall in line like a good little lemming.

[Trueblue1968]

13. She will fall in line like an EVIL lemming. All thr Repukes are EVIL

[JustAnotherGen]

15. She's running next year

It's just for free publicity.

[Emile]

18. She is holding out to the highest bidder. Her vote is for sale.
