I believe there are many GOPe types who like to be in the minority of the Senate. Less work and more money for them with Trump gone.

Being in the minority makes it a lot easier to write donation emails.

Yep. Can't wait to hear all the promises about what they'll do when they take back the house/senate.

It’s the same with government schools — if your school is fantastic, everyone is happy with the status quo. You can try to ask for more money to administer your school, but taxpayers won’t vote for that, “It’s fine”.

But, if your school is a disaster, you can go to the taxpayers and say, “This school is a disaster. I can make it better. But I need more money. Please approve this tax increase.” And that’s how you get more funding.

That’s a good part of why government schools are always a disaster. And it appears to be part of why Republicans like to be the minority party.
