“If Senators fear losing their office if a bill becoming law–and they tend to be highly risk-aware–it often has a way of dying without any fingerprints on it (which is arguably what happened in 2007).”
They fear nothing. Time and again, when entrenched cancers like Juan McCain are challenged in a primary fight, the idiots in their districts, like a dog to its vomit, relect them.
They won’t lose office until the 30 million criminals are given voting right s and Pedro or Juanita is elected. These guys are so stupid to think they are immune.
