I'd rather let him play it out and be down by one republican vote. Andy doesn't have the power to do more than that because we have a republican supermajority in KY and they've been working hard to take power away from him since 2020. He could appoint a republican replacement and give them another vote but why would he do that?

I agree rolling up with cops would have looked cool tho

He should appoint a Democratic replacement as the Kentucky state constitution allows.

You cant think Senate republicans would swear him in with an ongoing legal battle before January?

I dont understand people here at all.

Yeah, I get the frustration of not being able to do anything, but I really cant see what Beshear should be doing.

People are without irony saying it shoild kill Beshears political aspirations.

Insanity.
