He made a bunch of Congressman needlessly fly back for a bill that was 101% certain to pass.
I never cottoned to his type (so called “libertarian” more like losertardian) and I hope the President endorses his primary challenger.
What’s bizarre is even his former bff Justin Amash didn’t join him on this one.
And Amash is now an “Independent” so he has nothing to lose. He is already dead in the eyes of every Republican.
Amash decided not to make an aß of himself on this one because he's still thinking of running for reelection as an "Independent" and he knows that not even Democrats (on whose votes he'd be counting for reelection) would countenance such a ridiculous, pointless maneuver.
President Trump already hit Massie as hard as he could on Twitter, so his endorsement of Massie’s conservative primary opponent Todd McMurtry (http://mcmurtryforcongress.com), who has proven that he's got guts by representing Covington Catholic High School student Nick Sandmann in his lawsuits against CNN, WaPo, etc., is a certainty.
With Massie on his way out, Amash needing to draw an inside straight to win reelection, Kerry Bentigolio having no chance at a comeback ... the Paulistinian contingent in Congress likely will be down to Senator Rand Paul come January 3. While my views are pretty close to those of small-L libertarians (particularly on economics and free speech), the Paulbots are not conservatives and they are not Republican, and both the conservative movement and the GOP have enough problems without having to deal with a handful of anti-Semitic cultists with allegiance to Ron Paul (whom, we should not forget, left the GOP *during Ronald Reagan's presidency* only to return when it was convenient for his '90s and '00s congressional runs, until he left the party once again after going 0 for 50 for the second straight time in the GOP presidential primaries).
