everyone went back to their office. no one following him out the door, it looks like? it doesn t seem that way. watching that happen, it sort of reminded me of bob corker s words where he said, look. the white house is an adult day care center and everybody knows it. so there is this huge divide when you talk to lawmakers, when you talk to republican operatives of what people will tell you privately and what they ll say publicly. so i think there were a lot of people who privately watched and respected jeff flake s speech, liked it, felt he was giving voice to something they may personally feel but you re right. they sort of said, good for you, jeff. but we re sort of sticking here. and tad, this profoundly disappointing as it is to me, the u.s. senate is not a rom-com. they want to keep their jobs. they don t want to have to get retrained for real jobs. what do the democrats do in this moment?
