That horrible prick from Kentucky that FORCED congress into a room together to spread

the virus...

Do we know how many were in that room, the House Chamber, and were they mostly Democrats?

I assume he sent them there not only to stall but to try and infect members...

They were present and standing six feet apart at least. They were in the Chamber, the halls, in the balcony... There was some video in RMS last night, probably can find it on C-SPAN.

They had more than enough for a quorum on the floor, and were spread out all over the place. Then the acclamation was done by those present, and I think by phone.
So, they did their best to follow the guidelines.
That guy from KY is still a brainless punk though.
