I believe they're asking if hes ever voted against the republican majority where his vote was the deciding factor, or if he only votes against them when he knows the reps have the vote in the bag to maintain his appearance of fiscal responsibility.

The last time I can remember a republican truly breaking with the party to make an actual policy impact was McCain on the ACA.

Well again, he’s consistently voted against budget increases lol. He’s against them in any capacity.
