fail to see how this is a major blow against Trump. If we lose the house majority because of this, every Republican voter in Indiana will be disenfranchized because the issues they care about wont even come up for votes much less be passed. It will be nothing but more impeachments 24/7

They don’t want to lead - just complain, talk about things they’ll never do and collect campaign cash.

This is why I don't want Senate Republicans to get rid of the filibuster. They'll inherit this awesome power and do nothing with it only to turn it over to the Democrats who will wield it like a nuclear arsenal.

Steve Bannon’s experts said the defectors were from the George Bush and Mike Pence camps. They think Trump is finished and they’re positioning themselves to move back in and take over the Republican party. Bannon suggested the White House politicos better get off their duffs and get to work.

I’d suggest the same for Trump. His approval rate is falling. I think people are tired of his overseas emphasis and the preoccupation with building his ballroom and the gilt he’s splashing on everything. He’ll lose the House and Senate for us if he doesn’t focus on his real responsibilities—following through on the issues that won him the election. I don’t care that he settled a war in Timbuktu. Stop making big promises and start showing some results, Trump. Stop attacking Biden; he’s as good as dead.

Two Republicans? No, two RINOS who very likely were paid off for their NO vote.

The proposed map seem to be drawn by people whose only connection to Indiana was as a place to fly over while jetting somewhere else. They wouldn’t even tell us who had drawn up the map. It was a state secret and there were no leakers!

These Senators said that Trump has no juice now. One of them left town to watch his kid play baseball at their 2nd home in Fla. and intentionally missed the vote.

They don’t care. They view Trump and MAGA as yesterday’s news and are waiting on Pence, Bushes and Dems to help them.

Note to the admin...

Don’t just primary the Republicans.

Find MAGA Donald Dems to run in ‘Rat primaries.

Until we do that we are fighting half a battle.

Agree, as I'm a Hoosier too. I voted. I voted to give Braun all the Republicans he needed to MAGA Indiana. Even when I saw Braun on TV he seemed a bit wishy washy on getting this through. I'm at a loss for words about how to vote in this state.

Plautus (via Julius Caesar’s words in Shakespeare): “You yourself / Are much condemn’d to have an itching palm; / To sell and mart your offices for gold / To undeservers” (referencing bribery in Roman politics).

Meanwhile, in the House:

Eric Daugherty
@EricLDaugh
🚨 BREAKING: U.S. House ADVANCES bill to OVERTURN a President Trump executive order after 13 Republicans voted with Democrats.

In a 222-200 vote, the House moved forward with ending Trump’s crackdown on federal worker unions.

Utterly ridiculous.

The 13 Republicans are: Jeff Van Drew, R-N.J., Nicole Malliotakis, R-N.Y., Nick LaLota, R-N.Y., Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., Rob Bresnahan, R-Pa., Don Bacon, R-Neb., Mike Lawler, R-N.Y., Tom Kean, R-N.J., Ryan Mackenzie, R-Pa., Zach Nunn, R-Iowa, Chris Smith, R-N.J., Pete Stauber, R-Minn., and Mike Turner, R-Ohio.
