I’d never vote for him just based on his purple-pandering.
And, AFAIC arguments for ‘seniority’ and how their loss would be bad for whomever is nonsense. Nothing in the US Constitution about ‘seniority.’ It’s just and entrenched system designed by Congress (BOTH Senate AND House) to ensure that gained power is retained and attempts to bring in fair ‘citizen-representation’ are suppressed.
A US Representative represents about 700,000 citizens whose number are no more important under the aegis of the Constitution than any other district. The same goes for the Senate - each one representing ONE state of FIFTY, no one state more important than any other.
I’d much rather have a whole new cadre of Representatives and 1/3 of Senators every two years than see this entrenched US Politburo of mini-monarchs in control, myself.
Me, I think the House of Representatives should be at least doubled in size to make it more "representative". Heck, take it back to the original one representative for each 30,000. Then they'd have to hold meetings in a stadium.
