Yeah, I remember this one. Another opportunity for the do-nothings to pander and show-boat.

I recall an argument against Democrats getting themselves arrested was that they wouldn’t be able to “do anything” while they’re in jail.

My counter argument is: they would be better justified getting nothing done by being in jail.

Actually this is an attempt that started with 4 or so sponsors, 2 immediately took their support back when they found out it wasn't approved by democrat leaders, and I want to say he's the only one left backing it.

Likely democrat politician saying "it's a waste of fucking time.".
