Chuck got them to “fall on their own sword” so the other Dems could safely vote “no” since these seven are not up for election in 2026 and the voters will soon forget their traitorous act. It’s all a game for them. (I don’t count Fetterman in this bunch. He already is in the Republican Party’s pocket.)
