By working with people whose worldview is antithetical to our own... you make those people politically effective. We did exactly that throughout Joe Biden's political life, so here we are. They do NOT extend us the same courtesy. See: Merrick Garland.

I think the biggest red flag is what he has considered the problems to be. Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid budgets (where he agreed with Paul Ryan, crime sentencing not being harsh enough, the lack of bipartisanship as if republicans aren’t obstructionists, and... raves?

As a body, members of the Senate have considerably more in common with each other than the people they represent and their voting record reflects that. Moreover, Senators vote, consistent with the voters who elected them NOT all of the constituents in their state.
