If you’re too fragile to sit in a room with a President you dislike, you aren't a "principled dissenter"—you’re an overgrown, petulant toddler in a power suit.
Spare us the performative boycott. If you despise the administration so much that you refuse to participate in the basic functions of the government you’re literally paid to run, then have the spine to resign.
Even the Confederates had more class. In 1861, as the Union fractured, Southern Senators actually surrendered their seats before leaving. They didn’t hang around like bitter exes to heckle Lincoln from the cheap seats while still cashing a federal paycheck.
If you’ve lost the stomach for the job, get out of the way; otherwise, sit down, shut up, and do the work.
🚨SENATE SABATOGE: Mitch McConnell (or his handler) is BLOCKING the "SAVE AMERICA ACT"!
As Chairman of the Senate Rules Committee, Mitch has the authority to block or delay a markup by not scheduling one, which has effectively stalled bills like the SAVE Act despite pressure from House Republicans and Senate co-sponsors.
His opposition is being singalled via statements from "his office" and op-ed articles about "federal overreach."
Is McConnell even calling the shots anymore?
Or is his staff (David Popp?) or is Thune's crew ghost-running his office to protect the swamp?
DO YOU THINK @LeaderJohnThune IS IN ON THE BLOCKAGE OF THE SAVE AMERICA ACT?
