WASHINGTON — For the second time in as many weeks, a War Powers Resolution aimed at curbing President Donald Trump’s war with Iran failed to pass the U.S. Senate Thursday. The vote breakdown, 49-50, fell along familiar lines as previous War Powers votes, with Republican Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Rand Paul of Kentucky and Susan Collins of Maine supporting the measure.

There needs to be a better way to oust a traitor to his party like this asshole. Waiting for the next primary is insane. I'm tired of representatives not representing the people who voted for them.

I mean, he got a lot more conservative since his stroke. Brain damage made him a Republican

From what I've learned he was always a piece a shit, just had a good campaign manager and PR team. Plus he was up against Dr. Oz, which would make any candidate look good.
