That’s the only response she deserves. Don’t debate her, just call her and her actions what they are.

Yeah, but he can get rid of two words and a possessive.

However, consider the precedent. Anyone in Congress could purge anything starting with Empty G’s seat. There’s no democracy left anyway. Might as well have some fun while it burns. Yo Nero, pass the fiddle.

Way to give up.
And dance on the grave.
Some of us don’t have that same privilege, and wouldn’t celebrate it either way.

On some level, is it stupid? EmptyGee’s whole purpose in Congress is to engage in meaningless grandstanding to get her more attention. In that respect, it works exactly as intended, and quite well (I’m sure she’ll get donations out of it). Granted, the purpose is stupid, for anyone who isn’t her…
No debate is even possible (it’s not like she’s making an argument or taking a reasoned position) - or, from her perspective, even desired. She doesn’t want debate, for all her calls to “debate,” say, AOC, she carefully avoids debate, she just looks for opportunities to harangue and rant when no one can answer back and then she can just disappear (to post it on social media).
