Good news. The old farts are retiring, the GOP is ripe for a Trumpian takeover.
He is citing partisan gridlock as his main reason for leaving.
Exactly !
This is why the idea of forming a 3rd party is so stupid.
The old bull RINOS are old and will be going soon. Age will be taking them. (Yes there are a few exceptions!) With 90+% of Trump by the support by the rank and file the GOP is ripe for a “hostile” takeover by that rank and file. Tey just have to do it!
We need to keep Pennsylvania and Ohio. Plus we have Wisconsin and North Carolina to keep. I’m sure we’re ok in North Carolina and Ohio. Pennsylvania and Wisconsin are toss up at best.
And no GOPe committee chairmanships to look forward to.
He’s not that old...but, he was OMB for Bush 43...and, is a creature of the day DC lagoon...
Hopefully, Trump can get a MAGA oriented person to run...?
Watch out for Cocaine Mitch and DeWine to cook up a nice juicy RINO...someone like Kasich, who has been everything but Senator in Ohio...
Every time a burnt-out politician retires, an angel gets its wings!
