House dems are PISSED at what Schumer just did. This is the case where outside voices are maximally helpful - when people on the inside of the party want him out. Let's build continued pressure. This will not happen overnight, it will happened when we keep the pressure consistently high

What can we do if our reps are all Republican?

Call and give 'em hell for voting for cloture. (Though don't like yell at the staffer who may not agree with the senator. They will tally it the same either regardless of being nice or mean). Make them feel the pressure of their vote. Make them think sticking with Trump is getting to be a worse idea for their own political sake. Republicans can still be influenced on occasion.

Rand Paul managed to vote no. For bad reasons mind you, but he did vote no
