It would seem easier to convince Romney and Murkowski than the 2 bribed "Democrats" [View all]

Romney and Murkowski both HATE Trump and know without these voting rights bills passing - we would likely be headed towards a Trump dictatorship!

They both impeached Trump. Trump despises them. There is no future for either in the Trump party.

Why would they not?

Manchin and Sinema clearly have been bought off and absolutely do not care!

I hope Dems are making every effort to get a couple disgruntled anti-Trump Republicans to flip on this.
