The only patriot in Congress! Very disturbing how Kerry and Trump reacted almost exactly the same. This whole intentional destruction of the economy and this suicide pact bill ends voting for Trump by me. I don’t vote for socialism.

I support Massie on principle, but it was not a good move politically. This bill was going to pass anyway, and by Thursday we were at a point where Nancy Pelosi was Public Enemy #1 in blocking it.

This bill passed in the Senate by a 96-0 margin. Did you really expect President Trump to VETO it?

I may still vote for Trump and Republicans as the best of bad choices.But I really think this example of bipartisanship is terrifying.

“Rep. Thomas Massie was a profile in courage for standing up and demanding a roll call vote. Congress could use more members like him who show courage and are willing to stand up for the Constitution – even in the face of opposition coming from prominent members of his own party. Congress should be able to handle dissent and the possibility of a member not voting for a bill, instead of fake outrage and bullying dissenting members into supporting a bill that everybody agrees is loaded with nonsense.”

God bless this brave man.
