Atleast a few of them have some insight, even if it doesn't necessarily translate into actual behavior.

Quote:Sen. Ben Sasse (R-Neb.), for instance, has said, "I find it really difficult to envision any circumstance where I would vote to confirm a successor to Jeff Sessions if he is fired because he is executing his job rather than choosing to act like a partisan hack.” Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) has said she doesn’t think a new AG will even be confirmed if Trump fires Sessions.

Collins sells that line everytime. It's not insight, it's a con, lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Yeah, she likes to change her tune, and seems like she wants to be willingly betrayed (say, by Mitch McConnell).

I was hoping to see them explode.

No, they'll just die out one by one.  And be no great loss to humanity.

As fertilizers they would do something in death for humanity what they could never have done in life.

With the caption:  Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church Celebrates its 68th Anniversary!

Nice turnout.

Lots of bald heads and gray hair, too!
