Longtime Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.) has joined a growing number of House Republicans in saying he plans to vote to impeach President Trump on Wednesday following a deadly riot by a mob of his supporters at the U.S. Capitol last week.

“Today the President characterized his inflammatory rhetoric at last Wednesday’s rally as ‘totally appropriate,’ and he expressed no regrets for last week’s violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol,” Upton said in a statement Tuesday.

Republicans seem to want to go the way of Fox News.

Multiple opponents is how establishment candidates maintain office. Any single independent primary candidate will find another candidate will soon enter the race. The latter’s entry is designed to split the “anti” vote and allow the incumbent to return. The extra candidate will be financed by supporters of the incumbent.

This is the end of the republican party. They can try to blame it on whomever, but no matter. We know the truth. Big tech and big corporate threats have broken them on one side and we will abandon them on the other. I don't care anymore. Frankly, the way they can electronically control voting.... do we have a choice except waiting to be eaten last.

I am glad I am old... I cry for my sons and grandchildren.

Impeachment for WHAT? The supposed act of “insurrection” has not even been defined, yet. Point to the words where Trump reporters were sent into a crazed frenzy.

Answer: The people who went over the barricades and stormed the Capitol were all Antifa and BLM, and they had insiders there opening the doors for them. Those following may or may not have been, but they were not the ones battering down doors, breaking windows, and ripping down artwork.

NOT Trump’s insurrection, in any way shape, form or manner. Total false flag operation, the “Reichstag fire” moment.

I am okay with handing the keys to the Democrats for the rest of my life if that is what it takes.

The sooner they trash this country, the sooner I will be left alone, and the sooner I will enjoy freedom.

My little bit of nothingness is something only I can love.

USELESS, HE'S A RINO-DEM

No! You've got to be kidding! A RINO-Sherpa’s clothing! No, can't be..

(PS. What was your clue? A “long-time” representative from Michigan? A Ryan supporter from the Mid-East (er, Mid-West)? )
Too bad he did not "retire" with the other 25 Ryan-Romney-GROPElites who chickened out (er, "retired" with Ryan in 2018 to return Pelosi to power against Trump. /sarchasm - That gaping whole between a liberal and the real world.

If Donald Trump could not take over the GOP, it can’t be done.

That was mere conversion from whigs to republicans.
And that was 160 years ago.

Any examples within last 100 years?

I truly believe there will be impeachment. Every demoKrat will vote for it, and now we see that there are more than enough RINOs and other traitors among the GOP that will stab Trump in the back, as we have seen already!!!!

GOD DAMN whatever passes for souls in their beings!!!!

Why wait? There should be a bunch of recall efforts going on now! Waiting until next primary just gives time for forgetful conservatives to do nothing.

There was a time when an Upton story would bring up pics of his niece Kate, at least by the 100th post! ;)
