Why are you attacking someone who agrees with you?
Go pick on a Democrat

No one attacked you. Grow a thicker skin. All I pointed out was that there isn't going to be a majority -- with or without a tie-breaker vote.
Think about it. Yesterday, every RAT in the room hammered away at him, badgering him to ask for an FBI investigation -- even though they all knew it would settle nothing!
Then, today, they tweaked flake until he caved.
If they knew an FBI investigation would accomplish a big fat NOTHING, they why were they SO intent on having one?
Basic logic: Because they had a different motive.
What does a one week delay give them? It gives them one week! What will they do with that week? The same thing they've been doing -- but with one new factor.
They will roll out more "victims" -- but now they will be able to demand a "one week delay" for EACH of them -- and they'll get it, because precedent has been set.
Remember -- these are streetfighters, going up against "gentlemen boxers" -- the RATs bring knives to a streetfight -- the republicans bring a copy of The Marquis of Queensbury Rules.
Of course they'll give "sufficient time" (none of this "one week" nonsense) for each one. After all, it'd only be fair, and besides, precedent has been established, so really, we've no choice in the matter, we simply had to grant this reasonable request.
That's how I see it rolling out. And they'll keep it up until he withdraws (yeah, he said he wouldn't -- but he's no fool; when he sees the handwriting on the wall, he's not going to subject his family to endless, ever-increasing abuse for NO REASON) -- or, until Trump withdraws his name (he can read the handwriting on the wall too.)
Or, if they both hang on, they'll keep it up until the election, hoping to turn the tide in the Senate. And if that happens and they don't get a majority, they'll keep delaying.
And as to the republican "majority" -- why would anyone think the RATs wouldn't stoop to using the same tactics against the Senators?
How many of them would rather go through this kind of abuse, when they can simply cave, and avoid it?
Remember hillary and the "900 FBI files"? The left is ruthless when it comes to placing their adversaries in check -- especially when then know their adversaries have never been in a real streetfight.
