I was just thinking that it seems weird that Democrats, at least, are just using their time here as they would in any normal hearing. But I guess it does go back to what you said earlier, Nate, about politicians loving the sound of their own voice.

Honestly, the Democrats should just yield their time to force the Republicans to either support the Electoral College objections or condemn them (or to get this over with sooner).

Romney says today was about a “selfish man’s injured pride.” He is trashing Trump and, by implication, Cruz and Hawley as “complicit.” When he ran in 2018, Romney implied that he was going to be the new John McCain — conservative but willing to break with the party and very norms-focused. And he has lived up to that. And I think Romney is Trump’s least-favorite GOP senator, just as McCain was.
