One of the 10 R’s in the House to vote for impeachment. Comes off as highly normal and principled. Actually uses the L-word (leadership) in the context we so desperately need to see it.

An interesting aspect is that Republicans don’t yet know what to think about him, unable to parse why he’s against Trump. That’s disturbing in and off itself of course. I hope that he continues to speak out, and if they shove him off to political oblivion that he continues to speak out.

I can’t get over how the Republican Party doesn’t care about evidence, only power. We’ll remain crippled until they either turn it around or get somehow replaced.

The Republicans have an amazing propaganda machine targeting the aggrieved haters.

Become a conservative Democrat. I no longer think the republican party speaks for any of the values of conservatives including fiscal responsibility or capitalism. I say do it now before we become a true three party system with D R and Tr as the choices.
