Apparently even the debate fly has abandoned Mike Pence. 🪰

He'll probably eventually endorse Trump just like the 99% of spineless Republicans.

Peter Meijer was a GOP House member who then lost his seat because of a MAGA primary challenger; BTW, a Democrat now holds that seat.

Meijer, now a GOP candidate for nomination to the US Senate, says he would support Trump in 2024 – even though his impeachment vote implied that he thinks Trump is guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors. huh? 🤔

GOP Senate Candidate Says He Stands By His Vote to Impeach Trump Over Jan. 6, But Will Still Support Him In 2024

Republicans have lost all trace of scruples. Political courage in the GOP is on the borderline between highly endangered and extinct.

^^^ What a Christmas photo from a DEMOCRATIC official looks like.

That’s Representative-elect Hillary Scholten (D-MI-03) who flipped a seat in Western Michigan last month. Instead of a threatening pose with assault weapons, it’s a relaxed setting featuring her family and friendly-looking dog.

That area was represented by Gerald Ford in the House for over two decades before he became vice president.

Now contrast Hillary Scholten‘s message with that of Donald Trump at his failing “Truth” site. Blessedly, there’s no picture to go along with his vituperative, snarling rant.

US Rep. Justin Amash (MI-03) has used July 4th to declare his independence from the Trump Republican Party. Rep. Amash had been the only House Republican to favor impeachment for Donald Trump.

The libertarian-ish Michigander in his fifth term will continue in the House as an independent.

The timing of Amash’s announcement is interesting. Holidays tend to be slow news days when people are more focused on socializing and celebrating. But today is also the day that Donald Trump is attempting to hijack the Independence Day celebrations in DC for the purpose of political self-aggrandizement.
