GOP senator says his Party deserves to lose: ‘Hell, we ain’t done anything in the majority. It’s embarrassing’

Sen. Tommy Tuberville suggested on Wednesday that Republicans don’t deserve to perform well in the upcoming midterms, given their lackluster performance.
Speaking with podcaster Benny Johnson, Tuberville expressed frustration with his colleagues’ obsession with getting reelected.
“Everything that goes on up here, Benny, is about, ‘Oh, we’ve got to get reelected. We’ve got to keep the majority,’” he said. “Well, hell, we ain’t done anything in the majority. Why should we keep the majority?”
Fair question?
He added that Congress has managed to only pass one bill, and this despite “President Trump pushing and pushing and pushing.”
“And it took us 18 hours to get Republicans to vote for it — 18 hours straight on the Senate floor,” he continued. “And it’s embarrassing that we’re up here raising money to continue with the same people being up here. It’s just nonsense.”
He then outlined some of the “nonsense” that voters are contending with right now in spite of Congress and the Trump administration.
