If 2/3 of the Senate agree they can remove Cruz and Hawley. I wonder if they

could get the votes?

1. From what I have heard anyway, I think about 4/3 would be glad to remove Cruz by any means possible

[unblock]

2. wedge issue! senate republicans would never kick out one of their own, but everyone hates cruz!

3. I have heard Cruz is the most hated man in the Senate on either side nt

4. Cruz is hated so maybe.

5. The Senate can censure him, I don't think they can kick him out

The Texas voters can recall him, if they so wish, but it won't happen that quickly. I believe it doesn't happen until the next general election, in 2 years I suppose.

6. Yes they can. It's called "expulsion"

8. OK so technically, they CAN do it

... but it hasn't actually been done for over 150 years.

7. He can be kicked out

If 2/3 of the Senate agrees they can expel a member. But I don’t think federal officials can be recalled by petition, at least not in TX.
