Expanding on this theory.
If such a plot was planned AND NP and her 5-6 other congress people along w/their families tried to leave before the 'event', that means she left all the other Ds to their fate. If they where near the Capital / WH, they they were toast.
Escaping a 'bomb' and leaving your team in harms way WILL NOT promote loyalty.
Is this why the #2 D (hoyer) has abandoned NP on the wall?
Let's see if AS & NP are thrown under the bus by the people she left to DIE - if true.
