Please do this for congress!! It would be fascinating to see stats posted for each person, etc. BUT more interesting would be the response of the politicians. Will they use their devices less, or will the cameras be ordered turned off and the live stream halted?
- redeux 2y agoI think there's probably 3 outcomes. 1. Republic lawmakers won't care because their base won't care 2. Democrats will use their phones less because their contituents expect them to take their role seriously 3. Politicians will use this performatively when "the other side" is speaking
