Thune WILL get all 53 republicans to vote for it, because the RINOs know there will never be 7 demonrats that will cross over and vote with them, and therefore 60 votes is impossible. This subterfuge allows them to pretend to support the bill during the cloture vote, knowing that a final 51 threshold vote will never happen. They get to pretend to support the bill while continuing to stab the American people in the back the entire time. The only way around this is a SPEAKING FILIBUSTER.
