[egbertowillies]

Robert Reich continues to be one of the major intellectual leaders in the Progressive movement and the resistance to Donald Trump's tyranny and the GOP's complicity. He has a request of a few Republican senators that will make them heroes in American history if they oblige.

1. Soooo - What is the act?

2. Change parties (to independent), caucus with the Democrats so Repubs would be majority in Senate

"If just two of you changed parties – becoming Independent, and caucusing with the Democrats – the Republican Party would no longer have a majority in the Senate. The Senate would become a check on the President, as the Framers of the Constitution envisioned it would be."

3. Bully Idea!

4. I wonder who would be most likely to "cross over" to

Indep. saving face (integrity, self respect) and possibly their political future. I wonder which GOP Senators would consider the idea. Collins is a wimp so maybe Murkowski. The GOP members who do speak up are retiring. McCain is out of the picture. Who is realistically left?
