Massie on last night: Maybe it suggests not alienating independents and shrinking the GOP tent
X ^ | Nov 5 | Rep. Thomas Massie

@RepThomasMassie

Maybe it suggests not alienating independents and shrinking the GOP tent…

which has been done through attacks on the non-interventionist liberty wing of the party and by calling the Epstein situation a hoax.

Massie makes a well timed point. The midterms could be awful. On the other hand, if the president is truly not that popular Massie will be safely back

A double edged sword

Democrat states voted for Democrats. No one is really surprised.

I don't know about shrinking the tent, but we should kick clowns like Massie out.

But you know they’re not RINOs and that is just trying to bait his supporters

Massie has one of the most conservative records in Congress and an A or A+ from all the groups that matter

Trump is very good. He focused on foreign affairs and now it’s time to put all energy into the economy and nothing else. That’s what voters want. Yes even republicans.

"Democrat states voted for Democrats."

If Hitler had a (D) after his name, Pavlovian Demonicrats would vote for him.

Massie is the typical self-serving, antagonistic contrarian — his departure from the political stage can’t come soon enough

He's right. Turning foreign policy over to Lindsey Graham has been a disaster as has failing to keep his promise on the Epstein files.

Yyyeahhh. Maybe the demonicRAT Party would be more amenable to “independents”. Someone ping Sen. Fetterman. Maybe he has some insight on this.

True enough. Hitler was a Socialist. Imamdani is a Socialist.

Whoever said that “politics is show business for ugly people”, had Massie in mind.

But, as JD Vance said, massie isn't there where the votes count.

That's like saying someome is great teacher, who is a multi award winning teacher and beloved by students and the school system...

They're only having sexual relations with one under aged student, not all of them...

That’s 110% true. We saw something similar last night in the AG contest in VA.

The “Hoax” isn’t what Epstein was all about, it was that Trump was involved and on the “lists”. Come on Massie, be intellectually honest here.

After Massie gets his ass kicked in next year’s primary, he will become a well-paid contributor to MSNOW or CNN. Just watch (kinda like Kissassinger did).

Here we go again. Massie is anything but a RINO. He is desperately doing whatever he can to cut the size and scope of government. If that’s the definition of a RINO then count me in.

The guy who never supports President Trump tries to invoke Trump.

The Libertarian wing of the GOP is far smaller than the blue-collar wing. But, both I and Seth Keshel predicted VA and NYC. I had NJ as a tossup.
