The senator said he remains in North Dakota "close to medical care" because there is a high risk of infection and the possible need for amputation. Spokeswoman Molly Block clarified on Twitter that the risk of amputation refers to Cramer's fingers, not his whole hand.

I had an incident which my doctor said i was lucky.

Either a quick recovery or a slow one can be instructive.

And maybe he might grow a heart.

A heaping dish of karma would be served up if the groping GOP'er's fingers had to be amputated.

Or maybe Kevin Cramer is paying for the sins of his party...

VERY conservative, but at least he refused to help when tRump's cabal approached him before Jan 6 and voted to confirm Biden.

Like the other people who finally "drew a line" at that point, I wonder what he would have done if he thought he could safely be on the winning side of a successful coup.

But whatever. Hope they save his fingers.
