They didn't elect a senator to do the right thing ... they are Republicans, after all.

Actual quote from a PA GOP official, explaining why Sen. Toomey should be censured: We did not send him there to vote his conscience. We did not send him there to do the right thing or whatever

A moment of Republican honesty.
We did not send him there to vote his conscience. We did not send him there to do the right thing or whatever.
That's a statement that needs to live on in a political ad for 2022. Out of the mouth of a PA GOP official, your vote working hard for the Dark Side.
Yikes!
