Take the governor

Montana barrels toward blockbuster Senate fight
Montana is heading for a high-stakes battle between popular two-term Gov. Steve Bullock (D) and first-term Sen. Steve Daines (R) that could help determine control of the upper chamber.
Though Montana has traditionally voted Republican in presidential elections — handing President Trump a 20-point victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016 — it has split its votes for statewide offices, including electing Democratic Sen. Jon Tester three times.
Mostly we want a govenor of small states in the Senate.

I have been wrong about this before, like with Rick Scott who was caught instigating mass murder.  But in this case, dumping the dufas Republican small state senator is generally the best bet.
