That’s true, but it’s good to see someone go after Cheney because the day of reckoning within the Republican Party is long overdue where the GOPe is finally exposed to all as the willing minority party they aspire to be. Same needs to happen in the Senate where anyone with half a brain can see that McConnell did everything he could in the 2018 and 2020 elections to ensure that the Republicans went back to the minority.

The entire dynamic that is unfolding before us especially with the Republican Party is all rooted in the Seventeenth Amendment, well past time to repeal it.

There is too much power concentrated in the parties and in Washington DC. The check and balance on the Senate was removed when the 17th Amendment passed. We are now witnessing some of the fruits of that decision...

We are a democracy.. not a Republic till the 17th is in the dust bin of history

It's a strategy provided you have a large minority, which provides a lot of bargaining power without the downside of actually having to govern - which pubbies detest. But, became a small minority known to be detested by your own base and the shoe buffer person in the hall will spit on you. Which is fitting since their own voters are figuratively spitting on them.
