Key word “silent”. Yes they do not have a majority, but they sure can raise hell about it. The tea party is a lot louder than the Republican party.
Raise hell; go ahead. You’re missing the point - 34 Senators are ALL IT TAKES to approve the treaty. And there are at LEAST 34 completely safe Democrat Senate seats. CA, NY, IL, WA, OR, CT, MA, and on and on. Someone with anything other than (D) after their name will lose those seats, every time.
It’s not about raising hell; it’s too late for that. Elections have consequences, and too many conservatives slit their own throats in November when they “refused to vote for a RINO”... Well, we’re seeing the effects.
