(4,131 posts)Get her out of the senate and replaced by a D. She doesnt need anything with a lot of power or influence - shed work for Joe and do his bidding - but it might work.

(25,471 posts)It's probably not going to be a popular suggestion, but it's a thinking-outside-the-box solution to the problem.
On the other hand, it would seem like rewarding her for her abhorrent behavior. Might still be worth it in the big picture.

(4,392 posts)too "free," too "equal" and, therefore, irrelevant. So much for those 3 branches of government keeping the checks and balances when 2/3 work for the racist, fascist dicktator and MoscowMitch continues the hostage situation in the third branch purported to work for the People, a lot of whom are in favor of every immoral vice imaginable, embodied by GOP self-servers.
