107. Look at his voting record.

Sep 14

His progressive voting score is 50% higher than the highest Republican and more than 80% higher than the average Republican. Progressive Punch give him a "B" rating which they define as someone "worthy of support".

https://progressivepunch.org/scores.htm?topic=&house=senate&sort=overall-lifetime&order=down&party

Just because he says some stupid things and goes way overboard in his support for Israel, people think he has been much further to the right than he really is. He has never been the deciding vote to Pass Republican legislation nor has he ever tried to block any Democratic legislation.

I wish he'd just keep his mouth shut rather than say stupid shit like this, but I can live with the stupid shit as long as he maintains his strong voting record.
