Eventually, though instead of having their reach so spread out across various entities (radio in New England, TV in New York, newspaper in Boston) - Louis will have them return to a more focused, consolidated, and regional network, as well as returning their headquarters back to Boston.

I agree that Fowler will look good in the end about this. If people even remember that he stood against it.

But right now he looks like a jackass. A jackass with a point but a jackass nonetheless.

The Chase Report will have him on immediately, if he accepts.

Oh god the House

The House is where Democrats are far more organized and united for the most part than the Senate, and is currently inhabited by the following Republicans

Kiser
Brennan
Yang
Rossi

Only one of whom is reliable Aye vote.

Apart from the fact that he literally almost torpedoed the number one agenda of Reed?

Yeah Yang will probably be out of the house at that point. That's what she hopes anyways, she publicly supports when asked but does not want it on her record if it doesn't have to be.

She will vote yes without hesitation if it comes to it.

This all could have been addressed well beforehand. Like the fact that its gotten this far is a bit farfetched, but now he's the one standing against it and its making him look obstructionist.

About the only thing he hated more than Democrats was Zachary Fowler

Exactly. It's unrealistic that a constitutional amendment of this gravity was barely proofread before being proposed.

By my count, potentially incomplete, zero times.

To be fair, one time perhaps should be counted. A meeting that had Fowler exit seemingly happy with the bill and process.
