I’ve never understood how states like MT could vote solid GOP in presidential elections then send Democrat lawmakers to Congress. I’m convinced the average voter doesn’t understand party majorities set the agenda in the House and Senate. They just think their guy is “ok”. It doesn’t matter how “ok” a local Democrat is, that guy or gal gives the evil communists who control the party the majority they need.
Montana is neither a Red or Blue state. There are a million people in the whole state. One of the Senators is head of the Senate Finance committee and is in a position to send billions to Montana to pay for all of the programs mandated by the Federal government...
Are good folks of Montana going to replace him with someone at the bottom of the seniority ladder..nor a chance.
