I mean I voted for the dude on his principles. A majority of the job is getting elected and voting for things that your constituents want (ideally). I think even in his state he’s been able to do both. If he doesn’t start showing signs of improvement soon though I’d also hope that he step down for someone better suited for those responsibilities.

Being a senator is more than just voting, though. You also represent your constituents interests in subcommittees and by forming alliances with other members and submitting bills and a lot of other things. How can he do that in his current state? I feel like the party is going to keep covering for him until it’s convenient to drop him. He should resign now and focus on his health and his family. Downvote away, but you all know I’m right.
