37. Why even bother?

Nov 12

What matters is if he's there after January 3rd when the new Senate is sworn in. Is it relevant to the ultimate result whether he is allowed to tour around during the orientation or not?

Why should Schumer bother to make a scene with the Sergeant at arms when McCormick might be there in the end anyway? The Republicans will do bring your kid to work day, but it will be up to Pennsylvania whether he gets to stay.
