"Any dissenting Senator would be unable to do these? I don't think that's how it works.."

You need to watch C-Span. There are all kinds of rules for how they do things.

Anyway I've seen many of your posts on different threads- You are no Ted Cruz supporter-Be gone troll and take all the other trolls with you.

I was only ever a marginal supporter — and certainly not for President, especially as I believe that he is not Constitutionally qualified.

You see, I have a bit of a cynical view: any time people are fawning over a person in power, making excuses for them, that's the time those people aren't thinking — and that's the time that person can get away with much that those fawners wouldn't otherwise allow. — Moreover, I believe that those in power tend to view themselves as beyond/above the law, that they are somehow excepted and exempted from it, but that they may use it as a rod of iron to smite those who oppose them.

In short, I think there is a lot of truth to the old saying that power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
I think that many are foolish for thinking that our guys are somehow exempt from that rule.
