SUSAN COLLINS TAKES HOURS TO DECIDE ON LUNCH BEFORE ORDERING EXACTLY WHAT MITCH MCCONNELL IS HAVING

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—On the first day of the impeachment trial in the United States Senate, Senator Susan Collins, a Republican of Maine, spent hours trying to decide what she would have for lunch before ultimately ordering exactly what Senator Mitch McConnell was having.
 
Clutching the Senate takeout menu in her hands, Collins told reporters mid-morning that the decision of what to have for lunch was a matter of serious consideration and that she wanted to review all of the available options before selecting one.
 
“I’m deeply troubled and concerned about getting this order right,” Collins said. “There are many valid choices on this menu and I don’t want to give any of them short shrift.”
 
Around 11 a.m., rumors swirled that Collins was leaning toward ordering a quinoa salad, a choice that would have set her apart from the rest of her Republican colleagues in the upper chamber.
 
By noon, however, Collins emerged from her office to tell reporters that she had ordered the exact same thing that the Senate Majority Leader had chosen, a roast beef sandwich on a roll.
 
“At the end of the day, there was just not enough evidence that ordering anything else would have been better,” she said.
 
According to sources, Collins spent the lunch hour eating her sandwich alone at her desk and trying to determine why everyone hates her.
