'You Betrayed Your Own Party': Susan Collins HUMILIATED In Explosive Debate Before Midterms

Just for Senator Collins, can you name a time when you voted against your party and President Trump where it actually changed the outcome significantly? There are several examples of that. At one point, I had organized people to vote against Secretary Hegseth. As you undoubtedly have read at the very last minute, one of our Republicans changed his mind. Otherwise he would have been defeated for that job. So that didn't change the outcome. Well but it would have had that person stayed there. There actually are 56 times when the outcome was changed according to an analysis that was done by the press. And I voted against my own party more often than any other senator on either side of the aisle. That is not something that Troy could ever say. Do you want to say yes or no quickly on RFK? Is that a regret or not? No. Not a regret. As I said, I agree with him on some issues, I don't with others. He was very helpful in expediting the release of the low-income heating assistance program. Thank you. Senator Collins, I'm so sorry to interrupt. I'm sorry, somebody's interrupting. We'll have our security deal with that. Senator Collins, AI data centers are destroying our climate. They are poisoning our water. So this is obviously one of Troy's supporters. Oh, shut up. I did not, I didn't, I don't even know that kid. All right. Senator Collins, we'll give you the full minute to respond to the question from the video. Yeah, I mean, I guess the question for me would be, why would Elon Musk want to put money into backing Senator Collins? Why would Leonard Leo? Why would Peter Thiel? I mean, so yeah, I'm 100% about overturning Citizens United I mean, I was happy with Maine with a clean election system. I don't know if that's ever possible on the federal level, but I certainly would rather do that than have the extreme amount of money that's being paid by people across this country. I mean, just like the court. I mean, billionaires have bought Congress, and every day people can't afford to buy them back. And I'm definitely someone that doesn't believe in corporate PAC money. I don't believe in, you know, taking money from people that are making it harder for everyday working class people. So, I mean, I'm more than willing to do anything to get campaign, you know, reform, because I just don't see this as something that everyday people can contribute to. Do you think that this war would have happened if Congress had been consulted first and should it have congress definitely should have been consulted but under the war powers act the president as commander-in-chief for the first 60 days has very broad authority to do whatever he wants essentially when it comes to a military conflict after 60 days That's when I voted every single time with the Democrats to bring the conflict to a halt because he did not have congressional authority to go to war. We know for a fact that Maine has a budget deficit of more than a billion dollars. That happened under Troy's watch. Troy Jackson. I don't think I've been in the legislature for the past two or three years. I want to just add that that budget gap is a structural gap. Well, it's a structural gap that has come about as a result of policies that were adopted by the legislature. Troy's right, that Maine's supposed to have a balanced budget, but in fact it doesn't. the next governor and legislator are going legislature is going to inherit more than a billion dollar hole in the budget compared to 36 trillion dollars in the federal government but look here's the deal I mean again I wasn't in the legislature here for these last uh session I didn't put the last budget together or anything like that I didn't know what the forecasts were for those last two years but what i probably imagine what has happened is that we are losing money because the senator collins being willing to advance a big beautiful bill out taking all that health care money losing all that medicaid money losing that SNAP money losing a lot of LIHEAP money i mean i'm sure that a big part of that is because of what the federal government has done why we're losing money but again i wasn't in the legislature to do that budget uh but we always do have a balanced budget and we will get this there the legislature will get this one balanced also subscribe to One India and never miss an update download the One India app now
