Grasshole is a rino. The 2 things that needed to be done to save America was to #DRAIN THE FARGIN SWAMP and #BUILD THE FARGIN WALL

You're calling a record like THIS, that of a "RINO?" BS.

Yes, he’s a rino. A swamper. A kabuki actor. A professional liar. A reach around artist.

If you waterboarded him to find out who he voted for in 2016, it would be a safe bet that he voted for Hillary. Most of the ‘republican senators’ did.

Like I said, the ONLY TWO THINGS that needed to be done QUICKLY in Trump’s first years were fought tooth and nail by the ‘republicans’. That includes grasshole who supported mueller and jeff sessions vis a vis Trump.

All the rest of the crap is rearranging deck chairs on the titanic. Kabuki theater. Fiddling while Rome burns.

No, no I’m not. There’s probably less than a dozen republican congressmen that ACTUALLY VOTED FOR TRUMP. I can’t think of a single senator who did.

How can you tell? You know, the ones that were trying to get to the bottom of spygate, fisa abuses, unmaskings, etc. Only a handful were full-throated supporters of Trump. The rest were protecting the swamp

This is not hard.

No, you’re right.. it isn’t hard. I follow their actions, not how vociferous they are, and Grassley’s record as a Trump-backing conservative is rock solid.

Yeah, That’s why he supported mueller and supported legislation to protect mueller. A Trump supporter all the way. Just like Jeff “the backstabbing rat bastard” Sessions. /s

We have to start electing more Senators that side with US.

Sorry to disagree but elections will not fix what is broke in America.
