[E. Pluribus Unum]

They made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.

[Mark17]

Is he lying?

[RandFan]

I dont know but it’s strange he’s triggering this special election.

It’s a waste for one. Why not wait

backstab RINO alert

[enumerated]

He doesn’t know or care why he’s being paid to drop out. He just wants the money. What a whore.

[MileHi]

Buck also explained his decision to announce an early retirement, saying he wanted the special election to overlap with the primary set for June 25.

To what ends?

[willk]

He could not wait a few more months to serve out his term? What do the democrats have over him? Who the hell is he trying to fool?? Backstabbing POS!

[wildcard_redneck]

Ken Buck is pure traitorous scum. He is now a political zombie, dead but unaware of it.

“The establishment concocted a swampy backroom deal to try to rig an election I’m winning by 25 points,”

Boebert is not popular in CD4 because of her moral lapses.

In fact, she's not even a strong second - more like 4th or 5th.

People here don't appreciate her carpet-bagging.

Well, because Boebert is already in Congress holding another seat from another district, she can't run in the special election, or doesn't want to do that because it would just drain money for her November campaign. Buck is a traitor.
BUCK YOU KEN!

[TigersEye]

When your term is done move to California, Buck. We don’t need you here.

[DesertRhino]

He’s associated with the Cheney family. He’s solid GOPe.

[Fury]

Re: 10 - agreed. Boebert has made some poor choices and had some poor luck. Rightly or wrongly, those will be factors.

[rexthecat]

Boebert is history, self-inflicted.

[DesertRhino]

Those are merely excuses from people who hated her the day she announced. Can’t have a blue collar normal American business owner. The GOPe has worked hard against her.
They prefer polished and easily bought mainstreamers.

Jeez, I can’t vote for her because I live in a different state but I think I’ll give her an online campaign donation to help her out.

[Organic Panic]

He is tasked to take out Trump. A few more eGOP jump ship, America hating democrats take control again with Bowman in charge, house with Kamala presiding declare Biden wins.

They are not letting Trump win or serve even if he does.

[jacknhoo]

That’s the way I see it.
