re: #58 Anymouse 🌹

Well, you’re left with 46 D and 2 I senators. Angus King and Bernie Sanders aren’t going to vote for him. That would leave flipping Murkowski and Collins. The fact that every R in the Senate is caterwauling about money being raised to finance opponents to them says quite a bit (they’re hypocrites, but they’re also not sure if those two will actually hold the GOP line).

Upthread I noted a ruling from Kavanaugh against disabled women, essentially affirming eugenics as a position.

Corker and Flake both like to pretend that they’re anti-Trump. And they’re not running for reelection. There would be no cost to either of them to vote against Kavanaugh… unless they’ve already lined up high-paid lobbyist jobs starting in January that they’d lose. Ben Sasse also likes to pretend to be anti-Trump; you’d think they’d have learned by now to be better at pretending if they wanted us to believe them.

ETA: isn’t it 47 D and 2 I?
