If all you read is this paragraph, it’s just bone-chilling:
“While McConnell’s stated excuse for standing in the way of relief is his commitment to confirming Barrett as quickly as possible, that justification may be intended to obscure the fact that many Senate Republicans are simply opposed to additional coronavirus aid, whether or not the package would disrupt the right-wing judge’s path to the Supreme Court. Others have warned in recent days that in preparation for a potential Trump loss next month, McConnell is laying the groundwork to force crippling austerity under a Biden administration.”

And ofc they're only loyal to their corporate backers as long as the bribes keep coming. Ultimately, their loyalty lies w. their own wallets

They have children. They give their kids money, prop them into position and status, and mold them into little clones.

That's what republicans do. You can't base your whole political career on how government doesn't work then actually fix stuff.

Is delicate to call it treason, since it can simply mean they he has different opinion on what serves the best to the country.

Then he should have supported raising taxes in the past couple of years, instead of tax cuts. You don't cut spendings in a crisis.

Treason has a really narrow definition. You’d be better off charging him for sedition.

Sedition is “conduct or speech inviting people to rebel against the government.” Which may well be the (intended?) outcome of GOP workings.

He sought out the Russians to aid in election tampering. He is funneling information and disinformation both ways. To an enemy state.
