20. Exactly. I would never place my hope on 4 republican no votes.

It's better for us to get a full democratic government and then find remedy to Trump's damage. It's not that I don't want to keep my hopes up. But I wouldn't bet anything on republican doing the right thing, listen to the public outcry, or follow their own previous rules.

My hope is better placed on getting democrats into office and then fix the Trump damages.
