Evan McMullin: If Elected ‘I Will Not Caucus with Either Side’
Breitbart.com ^ | 10/16/22 | Pam Key

Posted on 10/16/2022 1:29:47 PM PDT by cotton1706

Independent Utah Senate candidate Evan McMullin said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he will not caucus with either party if he beats incumbent Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) on November 8.

McMullin said, “I am running as an independent. I’m building a coalition of Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and members of third parties to better represent Utah and to help lead our country forward. And I’m not going to Washington to join a party or to caucus or to play the party power game. I’m going to represent our coalition, and that’s a commitment that I’ve made to our coalition that I’ll maintain my independence.”

Anchor Chuck Todd said, “All six years if you serve all six years the entire time you’re in the Senate, you will not join either party’s caucus, giving them officially your vote?”

A CIA background is disqualifying for Congress.

If the Dems don’t even run a candidate because they endorse you, you may as well be considered a Democrat.

This is the RAT-Romney backup plan to hang onto the Senate.
Liz and Romney need to keep anyone from looking at their involvement in the Dossier.

"Bernie Sanders is an "independent" too."

Bernie Sanders, like Michael Bloomberg changes parties whenever it's politically expedient for him to do so. Bloomberg's been a Democrat, Republican, Independent, and back to Democrat. Bernie's been a member of the Liberty Union (Socialist) party, Progressive party, Independent, Democrat, back to Independent, then Democrat again, and currently now an Independent. Talk about schizophrenic political personalities.

No caucus but will vote Dem always (and “caucus” on a limo back seat as he accepts envelopes of nonsequential currency).

If he really doesn’t go with either side his sponsored legislation record may echo Michigan’s US Senator Debbie Stabenow’s first term: no bill passed bearing her name during her term. She was re-elected, of course. A Dem.

The clown has never achieved much to think he deserves to start in high office. He started his political career as a no-name candidate for the presidency. All he proved to be was a waste in the punchbowl.

His career has pretty much been with the CIA. I believe that agency is even more corrupt than the FBI. He’s never achieved anything that makes me he should be elected to anything.

Yes, it is b.s. The most influential role of a senator is to serve on a committee, and those assignments are doled out by the respective caucuses. He has to side with one or the other or essentially accomplish nothing.
