Oh, I agree with your sentiment.
In this particular case, even if one isn't a super skeptical, he/she can guess it'd probably go like this:
Since there are (now barely) enough of senate Republicans who noticed their constituent's resistance against the bill, those Republicans will put their 'sincere' efforts to block the bill from proceeding to a vote, presumably with a filibuster. In short, for now there is less chance for this bill to become the law.
However, after/if 'they' have failed this time, they'll come back with a different form of the bill's premise. And the game of "the mass media and people on social media will say anyone who opposes the bill is a racist" will be more amped up than this time.
They will get it eventually.
You see, they've already tested the threshold on how much the public would tolerate with this kind of nonsense bill and even conducted dry runs on some of the OECD nations: In 2005 South Korea passed the bill that allows non-citizens to vote in the elections. They pushed it in the name of "for the people" and succeeded to convince the public to believe the bill was for the public's own benefits. In July 2020, Japan tried to pass a similar bill but the Shinzo Abe's administration at that time blocked it. Coincidentally, Shinzo Abe, who is widely described as a right-wing nationalist, resigned two months later blaming a significant resurgence of his ulcerative colitis.
Still,
we shouldn't take this inevitable insanity just sitting down and being quiet. — We must publicly voice the opinion against the bill and get support from other people in trying to postpone its becoming the law until the next nationalist US administration arrives. Even if the chances of that kind of administration's happening are now slim to none.
