8. Thune's deflecting. The keys were handed to Russel Voight as soon as he was installed into his position.

The few Democrats who decided he was okay might be held to blame, but Voight is, like Noem, RFK Jr., Kegsbreath, and all the other *rump nominees the Senate had few problems with are totally GOP and MAGA creatures.
Thune knew what Voight was put in position to do. And he was just fine with it.
Like six year olds caught breaking the cookie jar to steal the cookies, and pointing at the dog in the other room to blame it for the mess.
