MAGA lawmaker eyes GOP blitz in 'short window' before Dem takeover: 'We could do a lot'

With Democrats poised to take full control of Congress on Jan. 3, one MAGA lawmaker is urging Republicans to use “every minute” of their fleeting majority to jam through as many confirmations and bills as possible.

Appearing alongside Fox News’ Brian Kilmeade at a restaurant in Jacksonville Beach, Florida, Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) was asked by a voter — presumably unhappy with Democrats’ midterm victory — how Americans could “fix this.”

Fine told the voter not to “get discouraged” and warned that Democrats would be well positioned to pass any legislation “they want” with their newfound majority.

“We've got to understand we've been through tough times as a country before, and the next two years are gonna be tough. In the House, Democrats are going to be able to pass whatever they want because they're gonna have so many votes!” Fine warned.

“But we have to explain why these policies are bad. They're gonna say they want Medicare for All — we have to say what they really want is Medicaid for all, so we're gonna have to fight back hard.”

When Kilmeade asked what Republicans could accomplish over the next two years, Fine had a much shorter timeline in mind.

“Well, we can do a lot,” Fine said. “Look, I'm happy to spend every day through Jan. 3 in Washington. We have a short window of less than two months to try to get people confirmed and to try to pass good things. I hope we use every minute of that time.”

Republicans hold majorities in both chambers until the new Congress is sworn in, giving Senate leaders one last stretch to confirm President Donald Trump’s nominees without needing a single Democratic vote.
