I think Republicans use spoilers when there's something somewhat unpopular but it's gonna pass anyways. Like if there are 54 would-be votes for something in the Senate but it's a controversial issue, you can expect a no vote from Collins, Romney, Murkowski so it passes 51-49 and they can look better to their constituency. If it's closer than that, they rotate who votes no, but the three of them never actually block anything
