I can't help but be reminded of a great bit from Inferno, a 1976 fantasy novel written by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle where a modern author goes to and eventually escapes from Dante's hell. He passes two US senators frozen together in the circle of traitors and chats with them. They took opposite sides on the US antiballistic missile treaty, one for, one against. But the author realizes that they genuinely believed the opposite of how they officially voted. They were traitors to their own consciences.
I think Nancy Mace is going to end up right next to them, along with a lot of other people, wondering why she's there.
Maybe Ms. Mace could send a message to Republican leadership about how stupid it is to treat women like this by not supporting legislation proposed by Republicans that treat women like this.
Voting for an asshole amendment is a great example of the Law of Transitive Voting (which I made up), whereby you are what you vote for. Thanks, Ms. Mace!

Yeah, no. I'm only showing 14 comments-- which is, of course, ridiculous. It's fucked.
