Zing! Senate Republicans ask for retweets equalling number of days since Senate Dems passed budget

Oh, yes, they did.

Can you help us get 1 retweet for each day that's gone by since Senate Democrats last passed a budget? HINT: We need 1,300. #tcot

Ah, the power of Twitter! Senate Republicans used Twitter to get the word out yesterday, when trying to remind people that Senate Democrats have not passed a budget in 1,300 days.

Senator Thune joined in.

Today marks 1300 days since @SenateDems passed a formal budget. Our nat'l debt has increased by $5+ trillion since then. #WeCantWait

And other Twitter users helped with the retweets, too.

@Senate_GOPs if there was a budget, there would have to be accountability & they certainly don't want to have anything to do with that

Oh, snap. It’s funny, because it’s true.

They are over 1,000 retweets right now.

Make it happen, tweeps! Get to 1,300!
