    to me, and by his own estimation, his biggest impact was successfully preventing Obama from making a Supreme Court nomination 8 months before an election, but allowing Trump to make a nomination 2 months before an election, and laughing about it on live national television. the closest I get to being religious is when I hope that Hell exists so that people like him finally get what they deserve

      He was completely fine with letting cheetolini run wild right up to the point where he incited an angry mob to storm the capital building. When his own safety was at risk, apparently that was a bridge too far. Mind you, not far enough to actually do anything meaningful about it. Not far enough to use his enormous influence, both in and out of the Senate, to make sure there would be justice. But far enough to feign concern.
