As Democrats spent the day torturing themselves over Joe Biden’s status as the Democratic nominee on Tuesday, House Republicans spent the day dealing with a much cooler issue: Refrigerators.
Republicans passed two pieces of legislation on Tuesday, largely along partisan lines: the Refrigerator Freedom Act and the Stop Unaffordable Dishwasher Standards (SUDS) Act. And throughout the day, even if they were just passing two appliance-related messaging bills that have no chance of becoming law, Republicans were — for once — just happy to not be fielding the reporter questions that Democrats were facing.
It was, in a sense, a day of bizarro-world split screens.
