JUST IN: Never Trumper Ben Sasse Resigning Senate Seat
GatewayPundit ^ | 10/06/2022 | Christina Laila

Posted on 10/06/2022 2:44:30 PM PDT by SaxxonWoods

Sasse won reelection in 2020, and his term was not set to expire until 2026. But Sasse has been at odds with Trump and his own party for years. After the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, Sasse was one of seven Republican senators who voted to convict Trump for his role in inciting the deadly riot.

Senate Republican leadership has been alerted of the news, a leadership aide told NBC News.

According to Fox News, Sasse is headed to the University of Florida for a lucrative gig.

Probably because University of Nebraska doesn’t want him. Everybody wants to come to Florida!

Is there anyone more sanctimonious than a never Trumper?

The sad part is he will be replaced by a RINO who votes significantly to the left of him. Ultimately, the Democrats win.

You are so right. Little Benny has bee pouting and whining since the second day of his "ass-endence" to the holiness of the upper chamber.

As I recall he wrote a great airy weepy full-page essay, for publication in the WSJ, this gassy, snarkey crapola about how much better the nation would fare if only all families would sit and read together on the weekends, as his did, Quixote, Notre Dame, Anna Karenina, the occasional Flaubert...what a candy-butt Sassy is and was.

Someone like that must be pretty far gone to the left (or being blackmailed) when resigning the US Senate is preferable to getting along with the MAGA faction of your own party. How difficult is that?

No different than Sasse then. At least Sasse did vote conservative on most issues.

“Remember when this little puke was going to run for prez?”

No, but I remember him defending Jeff Session during the Mueller witch hunt.
So I tried to e-mail him, which didn’t work because I had to live in Nebraska.(Too bad Senators couldn’t only raise campaign money from the people in their state)

This guy is a joke, takes money globally, takes a job in a different state, but morphs into a provincial Senator when it benefits him.
Combine that with him being an anti Trump dickhead, leads me to believe he made the ‘right move’ before 2024.

This is as clear an indication as you will ever see that a new majority of Trumpist Republicans are heading for Washington in January. I think that Sasse understands that his Never-Trump views and attitude will have little place in the new Congress. He would rather leave under his own power than be shoved out the door.

If you live in Nebraska get out and vote Make sure the Republican wins. The current Governor is a rino and term limited out.

Believe me they already are....and some of them are SHOCKED to see that I agree with their disgust at this choice.

LOL!

I wonder how many realize I hate his guts for exactly the opposite reasons. They hate him because he’s a Republican. I hate him because he’s a RINO.

From long distance out here in AZ. I have the sense that all Universities lean left. Is that true in gatorland in a conservative Florida. FSU is lefty, correct ?
