Susan Collins fumes after voters send her packing: ‘It is never enough’ Collins complained that “everybody ignores” her vote to convict Trump in his second impeachment trial. “What bigger break could there be?” she asked. “It is never enough.” While Collins touted her breaks with Trump, she was also a pivotal vote for key parts of his agenda. She provided a decisive vote to confirm Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2018, despite sexual assault allegations that he denied. And though she voted against Trump’s Medicaid-cutting “Big Beautiful Bill” on final passage, she was a key vote to advance debate on it.

Even if the democrats won NOTHING else, this makes it all worth it.

I have friends in ME that are (very pleasantly) surprised at this upset. But anyway, Susan, get rekt.

Despite her whines, the reality is Collins only broke with Republicans when she was sure it would make no difference to the vote outcome. She made damn sure to toe the party line the rest of the time. And she’s wrong, sometimes it is enough: Voters have had enough of Susan Collins.

Just write someone a strongly worded letter and furrow your brow. That’s worked for every other scenario for you, right, Suze?

She could never decide if her job was to lick federal boots or to represent the interests of her voters. As a GOP rep, we have plenty of examples that you can get away with doing either just fine, but not with constantly flopping between the two.
