“Senator John Thune has been groomed by Mitch McConnell to be his replacement for decades. Thune’s ascension to the role of Senate Majority Leader is essentially a foregone conclusion.” (pedro can confirm this; goes back YEARS)

Preferably, I’d want Mitch and his cronies “retired”. Unfortunately, Sundance is right: we have far more DeceptiCons than MAGA Senators in the Senate at present.

Okay, Plan B is to agree with Black knight’s plan – cut a deal, get the nominees through, then begin to nudge those DeceptiCons out. If Thune betrays PTrump, release the dirt immediately, and force the SOB out of office through scandal.

No Quarter. Because the DeceptiCons won’t be giving any if they think they can get away with it.”
