    I’ve heard it that the first 11 don’t complain.

    If you’re the majority you don’t have to leave; you can refuse them a seat.

    I recall Nazis were only about a third of the Reichstag when Hitler enacted emergency powers, and maybe that in the population.

    Republicans I think are between a quarter to a third of the US population - and the more famously crazy ones not even that.
