Then he'll turn around and vote in lock step with the rest of the scaredy-cat Rs.

Though, I doubt there are many whose failure to oppose Trump is born of fear. They just agree with the Cretin In Chief.

That's the ticket. Flake, McCain and Corker could save the Republic over the next several months with that single act. And they'd risk nothing. Ben Sasse could do the same, but he'd risk not getting re-elected in Nebraska. OK, as a Dem, he wouldn't get re-elected in Nebraska. Sad thing about my native state. We used to send Dems to D.C. Not so much anymore.

seems to be all he is doing there. Other than the man in the big chair he seems to be a crazy old ranting at nothing guy. Does anyone ever go there unless they want to rant at the chairs?

Change parties and bring one more with you. McCain and Flake would be a place to start if your really serious.

US Senators afraid to upset Dumpster for fear of being the next Eric Cantor. I knew it was bad, but jebus on a stick! It's been the Senate's god given right since the founding of the Republic to upset the President. That's what they do! That's their job! You have an august body of now 100 members that throughout our history have thought that they could do the job better than the sitting President, with maybe the exception of George Washington. Pathetic, but this is what the lock step, moronic Rethuglican base has wrought us. Pathetic.
