In perspective, I look upon their move as an arm's length hail Mary pass. Long shot, probably won't work, but hey there's nothing left to lose, and it might work.

Plus, the real perps behind the attempted coup had already insulated themselves to the point where they are hidden behind the obvious clowns that tried to do their dirty work for them. Otherwise, Greene, Gaetz etc. would already be behind bars awaiting trial for crimes that carry the death penalty.
