18. They don't throw people like this in jail.
Instead, they reward them by making them the Majority/Minority leader. This was a story before he was selected, so the party is well aware of this when he was selected. I remember it being an issue. To believe that this should put somebody in jail would assume that the party does not support these types of behavior. The sad thing is that they do.
