Geez, it simple. Take a head count. You may not need him. Push the vote up to Friday night. Let’s bring this circus to a successful win, one way or the other.
Could be interesting to put pressure on several democrats to make the deciding vote. If the vote is coming up short once the vote starts I think there can be a motion to reconsider and the vote can be moved to later.
If it comes to this make the rats squirm.
