i definitely have full faith that the moderate wing of the Republican Party will stand up to the far right wing here

It will be when he starts bypassing supporters to give committee assignments and gavels to the holdouts.

I do love the chonky buttons, but I feel like it could have a few toggle and rocker switches on it to really class it up. Maybe a key switch with a big "ARM" written in red above it.
