If I were still back in Michigan I would go down and volunteer for the opponent.

Money helps, but on the ground is where it counts.

Since amash claims to explain every vote he takes,can amash interpret how President Trump could obstruct investigation of a crime that isn’t a crime, that never happened?

Exactly. If you’re a Repuke who turns against your party you are rewarded for your “great” deed. You’re right. He has an easy life waiting for him. Another unprincipled, money grubbing sellout.

Because the RATS rule with iron fists. Step out of line and your committee assignments disappear and your pork dries up.

“Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.”

— Communist goal #15
That’s why. And that has been going on for over a half-century, so think about what degree it is entrenched at so late a date as today.

There are now 2 Challengers. Not good, this is how McTraitor and Flake kept getting in. The base splits and the Rat crossovers put the RINO in.

I predict Amash is the 2020 Libertarian candidate.

Don't know this RINO, but it sure sounds like he has been drinking the RAT ROMNEY punch, you know, the idiot carpet bagger, RINO, that makes a better DemoRAT than a RINO...

If this guys has any brains at all, he will back away very rapidly from RAT ROMNEY, because if he doesn't say Hello Flake!!!

Amash’s “Palestinian” background is being re-aired now.

Marco Rubio was a “Tea Party star” too.

Failed politician, virtually unknown until now. This is likely is Hail Mary to get 15 minutes of national fame, then leave Congress and take a better paying job at CNN or MSNBC.

I don’t associate him as a “Tea Party star”.

Is this true?

Eight years ago, it was (briefly) or, at least, that is how he marketed himself to get elected. Now? Not so much.

This current guy voted with trump 92 percent of the time and has won the seat 5 times. Can this dude do the same???? Also running his mouth doesn’t mean he’ll vote for impeachment if we even get to that point.

Justin, you smell funny. Are your loyalties owned and operated by foreign entities?

Had it not been for Trump, Amash would continue to enjoy the perks of GovCo privilege while safely and quietly operating behind his All-American conservative facade.

To all things a season.
