Ukraine ping
Bill Shipley, lawyer for many of the Jan 6 victims of Biden’s DOJ, on the politics of aid to Ukraine:
Ukraine aid is VERY POPULAR in swing districts — those districts that were won by Biden but currently have GOP Reps.
Ukraine aid is much less popular in safe GOP districts — places where Reps like Gaetz, MTG, etc., represent.
Opposing Ukraine aids will guarantee electoral success in safe GOP seats — wait, we have those already.
It will lead to electoral losses in battleground seats.
I prefer a GOP majority in the House as compared to a GOP minority.
The larger the majority the better because it allows them to pursue policies preferred by GOP voters. without having to compromise. They can even freeze out the 10-12 knuckleheads who are always looking for leverage to be an “Army of One.”
I fear a Democrat majority because they have shown themselves willing to pass laws that will cripple the country in ways that will likely be irreversible — which is their goal because they think those changes will be good and the more permanent they can make them the better.
THIS IS THE GAME OF POLITICS.
