Just so weβre clear, Netanyahu has lost so many people that he is addressing just a fraction of Congress.
When this happens, they fill the seats with non-members, like what they do at award ceremonies, in order to project the appearance of full attendance and support.
By my count, roughly 100 of the 212 House Democrats and 27 of 51 Senate Democrats (and Dem-caucusing independents) are in the chamber for Netanyahu's speech.
That's around half of each caucus absent.
