[Are you being facetious or did you mean “Republican Senate Majority”?]


I’m suggesting that while there are Republicans who will vote for Trump and against Collins, they are likely few both in absolute and relative (i.e. %) terms. Her principal issue isn’t driving GOP turnout in a presidential year - that’s the standard bearer’s (i.e. the presidential candidate’s) job. Her challenge is to avoid getting splashed if the guy at the top of the ticket is unpopular in her state. And that is why she has declined to endorse Trump.

I understand this, but I wouldn’t characterize this a desire to create a “Democratic Senate Majority”. (It may very well assist in that.) This is how I read your statement quoted in my previous post. You may not have intended this. Thus my request for a clarification.

I should have added COVID-19 as a contributing element to the current troubles. Idleness produces mischief. The lockdown has greatly contributed. The president is very wise about this downside and is working hard to get the nation busy and constructive.
