[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What would he gain from deliberately pulling the alarm and postponing a vote? Please help me understand why people think he may have done this deliberately.[/quote]

Watch the video and it’s clear he did it intentionally. [/quote]

I’m the PP and after watching the video, I agree with you. Please excuse my ignorance, but what what the purpose of a vote delay? Did the outcome change or was it close enough to change?[/quote]

Stalling the vote could have canceled the vote.  They were giving time for the Senate to pass a bill.  Then the House would have options of passing the Senate bill or shutting down the government, because the Senate would then be in recess.  Mitch McConnell gets attacked all the time, but he is in favor of more spending and against the Tea Party/MAGA.  
What changed for the Bowman plan to fail, is that the Republican corporatist caucus that Mitch can rely on for votes abandoned him and were not interested in insisting on Ukraine funding to be put in the emergency budget bill.[/quote]
