(17,984 posts)2. You aren't allowed to say negative things about Collins
She's fragile. It has to do with the spinectomy she had just before going into politics.

I never agreed much with Olympia, but she was a real feeling person. Collins aint worth much. She sort of floats in an ocean without any true beliefs except how can I float longer.

(1,584 posts)6. She really doesn't care.
She is a large part of the reason Trump has carte blanche to do what he is doing. Her votes, along with several other "GOP moderates" were the crucial votes for legislation like the tax bill fraud and Kavanaugh. You can put Flake in this category also.
