Chaffetz is checked out.

With less than two weeks left before his early exit from Congress, Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) trashed President Trump and U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions in a no-holds-barred interview.

Chaffetz — an ardent Obama critic who withdrew his Trump endorsement weeks before the 2016 election — said he thinks the new administration is already doing a worse job with transparency and helping congressional investigations.

“The reality is, sadly, I don't see much difference between the Trump administration and the Obama administration,” Chaffetz told the Sinclair Broadcast Group on Sunday.

“I thought there would be this, these floodgates would open up with all the documents we wanted from the Department of State, the Department of Justice, the Pentagon. In many ways, it's almost worse because we're getting nothing, and that's terribly frustrating.”

Never let a Republican lurk at your flank.

I have news for you......Trump isn’t a Republican......and he’s no better than Chaffetz, or Romney, or Ryan or McCain. They are all sorry and worthless.

As they say,”Don’t let the door hit you in the a**”. What an A-hole. The days of gentleman and statesmen is long gone.

There is a great saying about not letting the swinging door hit you on the way out!

Needs someone to blame for all his failed go-nowhere investigations.

No one leaves Congress early. You’re lucky if they leave even after they die of old age. Chaffetz must have some DEFCON 1 level dirt about to drop on him.

chaffetz is quite the loser. I live in UT and embarrassed by many politicians here (as well as many elsewhere).

We knew he was a POS when he was elected...then he thought he would come back to Utah to run for Gov. in 2020, that didn't go over well at all, his ‘townhall’ announcement he got tomatoes thrown at him and yelled out and the next three he attended he was booed off stage before speaking...

We don't want him, or Mike Lee or Mia Love...we will however take Orrin one more term...

We have a good woman running, she's smart and we have the Provo Mayor running also...have to see how the support goes...

As long as ‘rat’ Romney ilk, (family, friends ‘egg mcmuffin’ or others connected to him) doesn't think about it, then we are fine...

We are just like any other State, people are so busy trying to survive after what the ‘foreign exchange born in Kenya, and Indonesia, goof ball fraud’ did to our Country, they don't have time to vet the people...seniors are handling a lot of things now that we didn't use to, taking care of grandchildren so parents can work 2-3 jobs a day; volunteering in hospitals, homeless shelters; taking food to shut ins; it's busy but we, as seniors, are stepping up...

Hatch voted for Rubio’s amnesty, him and Flake, Corker and Heller need to be removed in 2018 or they will do it again.

BS. If you think 1/10 of what’s been accomplished or will be accomplished by President Trump would have been done by the other bozos you named, you’re sadly delusional.
