We know Eric Swalwell thought he was being very clever trying to dunk on McConnell with a thread of various laws House Democrats have passed but well, he wasn’t being very clever at all.
Instead, he only proved how ridiculous House Democrats really are considering most of the things they’ve passed are already the law or are just useless pieces of legislation in general.
Note, this is why they’re trying so hard to impeach Trump, they know crap like this won’t beat him next year. Just look at this …
Congress should pass a law that ensures women are paid the same as men for the same work.
Wait, @HouseDemocrats did. #WePassedThat
Time for @senatemajldr to give it a Senate vote.

This is already the law, Eric, and it has been for nearly 60 years.
Congress should pass a law that cleans up the dirty outside money and maps that pollute our politics.
Wait, @HouseDemocrats did. #WePassedThat
Time for @senatemajldr to give it a Senate vote.

Huh?
LOL
Congress should pass a law that prohibits employers from discriminating against someone for being LGBTQ+
Wait, @HouseDemocrats did. #WePassedThat
Time for @senatemajldr to give it a Senate vote.

Discrimination is already illegal, Eric.
Congress should pass a law to require background checks on all firearm purchases.
Wait, @HouseDemocrats did. #WePassedThat
Time for @senatemajldr to give it a Senate vote.
— Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) November 5, 2019
Background checks are already the law.
Congress should pass a law raising the minimum wage to $15/hour.
Wait, @HouseDemocrats did. #WePassedThat
Time for @senatemajldr to give it a Senate vote.
— Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) November 5, 2019
Nope.
Congress should pass a law to protect our DREAMers.

Nope again.
Congress should pass a law to update the Violence Against Women Act.
Wait, @HouseDemocrats did. #WePassedThat
Time for @senatemajldr to give it a Senate vote.
— Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) November 5, 2019
Why should violence against women be more illegal than violence against people in general?
Should I keep going? Or is it pretty clear that @senatemajldr needs to do his job? #DoNothingMitch #WePassedThat
— Rep. Eric Swalwell (@RepSwalwell) November 5, 2019
Sure, keep going, it’s hilarious.
How hard do you think Mitch laughed at his little thread?

Stop embarrassing our district.

Umm, you do know that this law exists, right? Right?

Why do you lie so much?
— Dagan K (@dagank4) November 5, 2019
Yay! You passed an existing law. You guys really don’t know history, so you.
— Joe Pallone (@Plonerock) November 5, 2019
Hey genius that is already a law…….
— RebekahLeigh (@RebekahLeigh79) November 5, 2019
This buffoon Swalwell thinks he’s so smart and witty, and a great lawmaker. He’s a buffoon and that’s about it.

Too bad this whole policy is based off false data
— Saladino for Congress (@JoeySalads) November 5, 2019
I make significantly more than my husband. He’s a farmer. Congress should ratify the USMCA so he can make as much as me.
— Robin RN (@rnrn4ui) November 5, 2019
Oof.
And Eric wonders why people were more likely to buy a bag of potato chips than donate a dollar to his presidential campaign. Psh.
