This is the dynamic that, more than anything else, drove the outcome on the humanitarian aid bill. It is what Pelosi is alluding to when she says AOC & Squad are just four votes. If 14 more joined them, things would look very different.https://twitter.com/_waleedshahid/status/1149074861848956929 …

Ha - you beat me to it in pointing out the fallacy in this argument.
I’m not arguing they would have as much sway as the mods who can join Republicans to push thru bills, but the ability to block something is important in its own way. It’s not clear they have that.

They can block to a point. If the govt is about to shut because of the progressives the moderate Dems can work w the GOP to keep funding and govt going. It'll be a diaster to go the obstruction route

. If there were 18 of them, the only way they could block anything would be to side with the Republicans. Either intentionally or unintentionally. Results would be their blockage would equal a Republican win. .

You’re making my point. When the Squad voted against the humanitarian aid bill, they were in fact siding with Republicans, who all voted no. If there had been 14 more, Pelosi would not have been able to pass it.
