After yesterday’s vote, can we finally dispense with the quaint but incorrect notion that @BenSasse is some sort of constitutional conservative scholar? He’s a Paul Ryan in Cornhusker clothing. All talk. No spine. An opportunist.
You aren’t a constitutional conservative if you vote against upholding the Constitution. It really is that simple.

I would emphasize the no spine. Because I think he holds these beliefs and betrayed them.

Isn’t voting against upholding the Constitution a violation of the oath legislators take when taking office?
-
It is. Sadly, the voters don't hold them accountable.

Exactly. 12 of the 53 members of the
@SenateGOP voted to keep President Trump from exceeding his Constitutional authority. That’s 23% of them. And that’s MORE than we expected. Don’t EVER call yourselves Constitutional Conservatives again. We will laugh at you openly. - 1 more reply

They did not uphold their oath of office. Strict constructionist or believer in a "living Constitution", this violated any version. AND the same for SCOTUS if it says that a President has not just "great discretion", but the authority to create an emergency out of thing air.

They were never constitutional conservatives, or any kind of constitutionalists. This isn't news.

Or fiscal conservatives for that matter.
