What went wrong indeed. Where to start? a jumpstart backbencher ready to make any promise to the US in exchange for support - even promises he can't deliver - and a real who's who of dumb assholes that includes Mikes Pence &amp; Pompeo, Elliot Abrams, John Bolton among others are in charge of this thing. 

I honestly don't think they were expecting to do this today. Their timetable got jumped up and now they are trying to push it through. My personal belief is that they all thought this was going to be way, way easier than its turned out to be.
