It’s interesting that Grandy, a former democRAT congresscritter is on board with this.
Grandy was always a Republican. He was a roommate and best man for David Eisenhower, speechwriter for a Republican Congressman, and Grandy won ‘Treasury Watchdog’ awards as a Congressman himself.
Maybe he’s a social liberal, but there’s no doubt about his credentials as a Republican.
He was a Republican congressman

WRONG. He was elected as a Republican.
Quick online research confirms my thought that he was always a GOP’er, having served four terms as a Republican Congressman and being defeated in a ‘goobernatorial” bid in IA. It appears to me that his biggest sin was being described as a “moderate”; but, he’s on the right side of this issue if he persists.
Fred Grandy was raised wealthy and Republican, and met David Eisenhower while attending Philips Exeter Academy. When Eisenhower married Julie Nixon, Grandy served as best man.
