Sean Davis Reveals The Real Reason Why John Thune is Protecting RINOs Who Are Blocking the SAVE America Act: "To Mitch McConnell, the Senate is his means of protecting his own power. He goes out and raises a ton of money. He's able to go and browbeat corporations into donating to his PAC. That's how he gets power in the Senate. And if he has to spend his time in the US Senate, if he has to spend two months exhausting a Democrat filibuster in order to pass something that the American people want, that is not worth it to him, because it takes two months away from delivering for his actual constituents, which are corporate lobbyists on K Street." "It's fascinating to see the difference between Thune and McConnell. McConnell is very, very smart, utterly vicious, very good at what he does, but he's kind of been out of it with all his health issues, so he installed his boy, John Thune, who looks great on camera, but isn't all that bright. He just doesn't have the the viciousness and the smarts that he needs to do this job." "Had Mitch McConnell been leader, you know, truly on the floor every day, he would have nuked the SAVE AMERICA Act from orbit, like months ago, and never would have allowed it to get this kind of momentum. But John Thune just isn't very good at it. So he's just been floundering for like months, like a fish who's been thrown out of the bowl and is like gasping for water, and so now he's like trying to put the toothpaste back in the tube, but he just can't do it. it's depressing watching how little our leaders actually care about what voters want. But in another sense, it's kind of just amusing to watch how bad he is at the job."
