3. I still can't fathom

That not a single solitary Republican Senator will come forward and support sane legislation. I am just heartbroken that we are at this point. That it is purely partisan.

All these Senators are OK with screwing over their constituents because they have to tow the party line instead of voting FOR legislation that will actually HELP their own voters.

If these same voters complained that their Senators have somehow betrayed them (voting against the party line), the politicians should say: They are voting for things that are GOOD for you.

Politicians have no trouble taking away our rights (voting, women’s choice) but heaven forbid they actually help.
