"WHIPPING" votes. Badgering intimidating threatening strongarming EXTORTING people to obey your say. Like the prez did with Zelensky?
If moscow mitch does that to the senate eunuchs to force them to vote his way he should be booted from the Senate because he is a criminal too. EXTORTION at any level is a no no boys and girls. DIDJA NOT KNOW AT LEAST THAT MUCH?
You do know that each party in both the House and Senate has someone whose job TITLE is Majority/Minority Whip?
That is normal everyday process in Washington. Do we boot them all out? I say we give the all term limits. 2 terms in Sen 7 Terms in House and max of 15 yrs in Congress period. But not because they whip votes.
Yes I do know that. I also know that Nancy Pelosi of whom I am very proud is the best WHIPPER of votes that ever was. However in this case with moscow mitch WHIPPING his lemming spineless eunuchs to vote against requiring documents and witnesses who will testify under OATH I think it is REPREHENSIBLE. Also I read that Nancy Pelosi DID NO WHIPPING AT ALL during the House Impeachment traial. She said she would not do it. She would let each member follow his/her conscience. So you see whipping comes in a variety of strenghs. The mitch version I abhor with all my heart. The Nancy vesion I adore. SIGH. Thank you for your reply L.

Did you see Schiff get "whipped" back in Dec when he said it was time to send the articles to the Senate? It was quick and he fell back in line quickly. Just me they knew not to cross Nancy. And they will pay later. Why do you think the one Dem switched parties? The others had permission because of their area.
