    Plainly it was the Republican caucus’s mess to clean up. Maybe they tried and failed, IDK. As you say, this was always an option, but now they have a backup of 600+ promotions. With a 1 hour minimum debate time, you can do the math.

      Absolutely, I just take some exception to framing this move being an asskicking for Traitorville himself. He’s still getting his way, which apparently means getting most people to hate his guts even more.

      I still need to go put some signs up near his house. Of course it’s in a gated subdivision, beachfront, in Florida.

        If you are a Senator who has to go through multiple consecutive sessions for that fool, you are not going to be nice to him in the cloak room. It begins there, and finishes with your office moved and no money from Republican PACS.

          Fair point!

          Also he gets wackos putting signs with “Traitorville” up near his house.

          No idea who would live near enough to do that though. *cough
