King coasted to re-election, at 81 is unlikely to run again, and generally does
not vote with MAGA.

Angus King

Here is how King is spinning his sell-out on his website: King Votes to Block Trump Administration Attempt to Gut the Federal Government and Essential Services.
King Votes with Republicans to Give Trump Administration Free Rein to Continue Gutting the Federal Government and Essential Services.
There, Angus, fixed it for you.
King presents himself as some sort of savior, but he has wasted his opportunity to stand up. By bowing down, King has at best become a talking point for JD Vance et al and at worst an accomplice.
To defend his Yes votes, Angus King makes the same sorry argument as he did when he voted with MAGA in March: Trump will do worse if the government shuts down. In March it was an hypothesis. Now we know that King's prior vote did not mitigate the Trump regime's abuses - it helped accelerate them. Since March, Republicans passed their Big Budget Bill -and the regime continues its antidemocratic and unconstitutional rein of terror, and to engage in spectacular corruption.
The Dems must nominate centerleft/right candidates in some districts and states. And socialists everywhere else. A majority gets democracy restoration.
Fetterman is brain damaged.
Cortez-Masto is in a vulnerable seat.
