How is he giving cover to the rats? He has it in his power to require a quorum of this elected body to actually assemble and vote. Thats what hes doing and I dont blame him since the bill is still thoroughly larded up.The proposed voice vote is that which is giving cover: no quorum present and no one in the record as actually having voted one way or the other
And anyone who gets covid-ed coming back to CONgrift for the quorum (that means ANYONE for the next 2 weeks after) gets to point the finger squarely at Trump and the Republicans.
Principle-wise, politics foolish.
