Kinzinger: ‘I’ve Been a Republican Far Longer’ than Trump — Not Letting Him ‘Hijack My Party’
Breitbart ^ | 16 May 2021 | Pam Key

Posted on 05/16/2021 12:08:23 PM PDT by Magnatron

Representative Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he had been a member of the Republican Party “far longer than” former President Donald Trump and declared that wasn’t going to “let him come in and hijack my party.”

Anchor Chuck Todd said, “How long do you fight to stay a member of a club or reform a club that doesn’t want you? I’m referring to the Republican Party.”

Kinzinger said, “Look, I’ve been a Republican far longer than Donald Trump has, and I’m not going to let him come in and hijack my party and turn it into something that great people like Ronald Reagan and George W. and George H.W. Bush and all the great leaders back didn’t want it to be. I’m not going to let Donald Trump win at that. That’s what the fight is about. I believe in what we used to believe in with 21st-century solutions, though.”

“great people like Ronald Reagan and George W. and George H.W. Bush”

1/3, but this isn’t baseball, Adam.

I thought his district threw this cancerous jagoff out last election. He seems to think he represents the Republican Party. Well, there is always a next time to get rid of him.

Kinzinger isn't going to get elected to jack squat here in his district. He's toast.

His entire family have distance themselves from him he's that much of an embarassment.

Kinzinger, you POS. I have been a conservative AND a Republican since before you were born.

I have seen turds like you hijack the party. It isn’t YOUR party. It is MY party (or at least used to be before jackasses like you hijacked it. And you are trying to turn it into YOUR party.

I take great exception with that.

“I’m not going to let Donald Trump win at that. That’s what the fight is about.”

Well..... at least there’s an admission that him and his ilk are against and want nothing to do with winning.

After all.... Mr. Mean Tweets is an outsider.

Kinzinger: ‘I’ve Been a Republican Far Longer’ than Trump

Which goes a long way toward explaining why so many conservatives have given up on the Republican Party. People like Kinzinger, Cheney, Romney, Flake, McCain and both Bushes have betrayed conservatives over and over again. No more. The scumbag establishment types need to leave, not Trump.

What’s the point of printing this crap from one traitor?

He’s an irrelevant, tiny minority in a party with 80 million solid voters. None of them because of him.

Who cares what he thinks, says, or does?

I will accept the argument that Kinzinger better represents the gutless, craven, corrupt GOP than does Trump. It also explains why I am not a Republican and have not been one since the elder Bush was nominated.
