Nineteen Republican Senators declared that they need to be primaried

The Senate had before it a 2,700-page bill that purports to allocate $1.2 trillion in taxpayer funds to repair America’s infrastructure. Of course, that’s not the case. While a good chunk will repair roads and bridges, vast sums of the money will be used for a variety of leftist wish list items, including large chunks of the New Green Deal. A bill that bad ought to be laughed out of the Senate. Instead, not only did all the Democrats vote for it, so did 19 alleged Republicans.

Of course, it’s a dead certainty that none of the Democrats and Vichy Republicans read the bill. Just as with Obamacare, they were going to pass it to see what was in it. Still, we know some of what’s in the bill and it’s not good. Here are a few examples.

Here’s are the 19 Vichy Republicans, every one of whom should be primaried:

  1. Roy Blunt, Missouri
  2. Richard Burr, North Carolina
  3. Shelley Moore Capito, West Virginia
  4. Bill Cassidy, Louisiana
  5. Susan Collins, Maine
  6. Kevin Cramer, North Dakota
  7. Mike Crapo, Idaho
  8. Deb Fischer, Nebraska
  9. Lindsey Graham, South Carolina
  10. Chuck Grassley, Iowa
  11. John Hoeven, North Dakota
  12. Mitch McConnell, Kentucky
  13. Lisa Murkowski, Alaska
  14. Rob Portman, Ohio
  15. James Risch, Idaho
  16. Mitt Romney, Utah
  17. Dan Sullivan, Alaska
  18. Thom Tillis, North Carolina
  19. Roger Wicker, Mississippi
