This is basic math. When you have but barely a majority, a member or members can hold everyone hostage.

Precisely. Once we know a vote is scheduled we will know that they have enough votes. Currently with possibly 3 hold-outs they might not be able to proceed any quicker.

It does seem to me that since we have Republican senators who cannot be counted on to vote with their fellow senators on any given issue, that there might be a solution, or an earned reaction, by the Republican leadership. Treat these party straddlers as the democrats treat their recalcitrant congressional members. Find out where they are most vulnerable and confront them with alternatives. Are these RINOS bought by interests that will be hurt if Republican leaders disrupt the money flow or any number of other concerns? There is a way to bring them around or force them to go where their political and financial interests lie. Run as the democrat candidate on the far leftist democrat party platform and stop impeding the TRUMP administration. Democrats do not tolerate deviation from their party and will destroy their own members without any hesitation for stepping out of line. Republicans are weakened by their toleration of the subversion by their own party members who have used the GOP label to grab a senate or Congressional seat for self gain or worse. The worse being a uniparty, open borders, replacement of this American Republic with a dictatorship, socialist, communist form of government.
