Amazing how much Republicans want to protect and love pedophiles

By “GOP party regular” they mean pedophile protector. These people are sick.

Politics is funny. Sometimes the person who loses the public fight ends up being the one history proves right later.

Kelly Hall had a long goatee and was wearing a t-shirt with the slogan “Government Watch List” when he went to vote on Tuesday. The Hebron, Kentucky resident told Slate he had voted for Ed Gallrein because he “wanted to try something different.”
He specifically cited Massie’s teaming with Rep. Ro Khanna, a California Democrat, on the Epstein Files. Hall thought the files named people who just happened to be there incidentally, which the voter described as “horrible.”
Betting odds on the content of his hard drive?

I disagree with Thomas Massie on roughly 99% of things.
That said, we lost a good one today.

And GOP voters continue to show how awful they are.

What is the minimum number of retiring or doomed Republicans required to factionalise and hold the balance of power in the legislature?
Alas, all of them have shown themselves to be spineless cowards. Massie will gladly vex Trump on his way out, but he needs like-minded numbers in order to inflict damage.

Move over Liz Cheney. Rep. Massie will be laughing his way into the tv studio any minute.

Massie needs to go scorched earth with the Epstein files now. Name names dammit

The primary was a red vs red battle. It doesn’t matter that much. But what it does shows is that Trump can still influence some of the republicans voters, enough to overcome the advantages incumbents have, when he throws a lot of money at the race. What it doesn’t show is how his endorsed, non-incumbent candidate will fare against another candidate in the general election.
When you consider that the first rule of politics is “It’s the economy stupid” and that the republican candidate is a non-incumbent being endorsed by the president with an abysmal approval rating, the tea leaves are not looking favorably for the republicans in the general election.

The real question. Will they drop 35 million for the other guy to beat his Democrat challenger?

Thomas Massie quote: “makes sense for 30 seconds – END THE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION” – I hate it here. It’s so stupid.

This guy was Trump cult on all but one topic which was raping children and republicans in Kentucky was like “hey now we don’t be punishin kid fuckers round here” and booted him.

Yup, everyone does. Trump just keeps winning

Do the numbers of House and Senate Rs who lost their primaries due to Trump add up to the votes needed to impeach and remove him from office?

Every time one these guys that the White House occupant campaigned against loses, it is a sign that we still not on the same page with a significant number of voters.
Seriously, what the hell is wrong with them?
These outcomes are not referendums on the policy prescriptions of their opponent. This is cult behavior.
Just as Reagan’s ‘Are you better off than you were four years ago?’ moved us away from the social compact that asked ‘are we all better off than we were 4 years ago?, the White House occupant has emboldened voters to follow their worst tribal cultish instincts and the consequences of that trend will last long after he is gone.

If the GOP grew a spine together they could take back the party. However they will all find out one by one that once your usefulness wears away TACO will get rid of them.

Trying to be realistic here, but what are the odds we could Massie on the POTUS ticket for 2028?

I’m going to be very disappointed if he does not go scorched earth

Primary voters tend to be the most diehard party supporters. IMO, it’s actually the problem with parties selecting their candidates via election versus selection. People think it’s more democratic, but the actual outcome appears to be candidates that are further from what most people want versus closer.

Massie has an amazing redemption arc opportunity. Release everything; every file email all of it from that Epstein list case. And all of the back channel pressure as well. Exposing the cockroaches to sunlight is the only way. That said I am almost positive he will not.

Any hope of him running as Libertarian or Independent so the vote splits and blue wins?

He could toss a grenade into the party and blow it all up on his way out. The last thing the GOP needs is a man with nothing to lose by burning them to the ground and everything to win by doing it.
All he has to do is release all the details, the pressure campaign from Trump to not release, the details of the backroom deals offered, the “who” from the files that the GOP is so desperate to protect (we know Trump is part of it but he isn’t the whole of it by a long shot.

These primaries tell you the parts of the country where more voters support racism and abuse toward children, while hiding behind the “Bible”. You know, the modern civilization.

So the only people to be held responsible for child rape, abuse and torture, by the POTUS, are the people who tried to tell the world about it. Nice.

Sometimes I look at people like Matt Gaetz or Stephen Miller and I think, can people really not tell that those are the bad guys? Just look at them.
Ed Gallrein is another one of those people. Look at him.

All I take from this is that people in Northern Kentucky support pedophilia.
