They listen at times, but the fact is they don't care about the people they represent. They care about keeping their jobs, and they see pleasing trump as the only way to do it. Either speak out, and have trump "primary" them out of office, or play along hoping to become the only party in the U.S.

But, will they actually do anything but complain about it? Sometimes it seems collins gets approval from trump to say those things to boost her "bi-partisan" credentials and help her get re-elected again. Don't trust her to do what's right.

Yes. My point is if they were doing something disruptive, dangerous, or illegal, such as obstructing a roadway, arrest them for that. Don't make praying in public illegal too. That alone should not be a problem for anyone. And no to the last question.

So now the "party of big business" is dictating to corporations that they must fire employees who dare to voice their displeasure with them, under threat of legal action. If NBC caves, they have become enemies of the state, just like our current administration.

Forced prayer, or the implication of favoritism of one religion over another in a public institution or workplace is not acceptable in a free society. But, banning all prayer in public places where it is not causing a nuisance of any kind seems to step over the line, violating freedom of religion.
