And, um, you know, so I think if, if you come out of college and maybe work for a couple of years or something, that's fine.
But if you meet a guy and you want to have a family,
I think it's a much better plan in general to just start the family right away.
To give his side of the story, I believe he said there's four Republicans in the Senate that aren't on board with the whole... McConnell.
McConnell and Tillis, I think were two of them.
I don't remember the other two, but I think...
You know, Thune, I still hold accountable because he's the leader and he's obviously a very weak leader if he can't get everybody in line to say this is what we're all going to do.
But I do think, you know, it's also those other four people, those other four senators that, you know, supposedly we have the votes, right?
We have 50 or 51 votes and we have Vance for a tiebreaker if we needed it.
And so we should have everything we need that they've said that they'll vote for it.
And so the question would be, why would they not?
then say, yeah, I'll go along with the filibuster too, because that's the way we get to that 50 vote majority vote.
The only alternative that flew seemed to be pushing was like just forcing a vote.
But I think that method would mean you need 60 votes to pass it.
And so it was almost like a show vote to just say, Oh, we're going to make the Democrats show that they don't like this thing.
But in reality, they were just going to sacrifice the bill.
They were just going to let it fail.
And so everyone was upset about that, of course.
And so Thune then was responding, well, I don't have enough support from these other four people.
And so I can't make this happen because it's just not going to work.
