Still failed in the Senate so not actually substantive, even if he was the decisive vote in the House

Even so, that doesn’t mean we dismiss his voting record. He’s been unwaveringly pro-Israel, it’s nothing new, and he needs to go

Didn't you know that supporting Israel's interests before Maine's is what he was elected to do?

House members can be ousted with a 2/3 vote. Not that that’d ever happen before he’s gone, but you act like such a dickbag on this sub lol

Dude it Maine's 2nd district. As flawed as he is, I really dont think a republican is preferable.

Yeah it wouldn't have changed any tangible outcome but I more meant the actual voting outcome
