Nineteen Republican Senators declared that they need to be primaried

Nineteen Republican Senators declared that they need to be primaried
By Andrea Widburg

The Senate had before it a 2,700-page bill that purports to allocate $1.2 trillion in taxpayer funds to repair America’s infrastructure. Of course, that’s not the case. While a good chunk will repair roads and bridges, vast sums of the money will be used for a variety of leftist wish list items, including large chunks of the New Green Deal. A bill that bad ought to be laughed out of the Senate. Instead, not only did all the Democrats vote for it, so did 19 alleged Republicans.

Of course, it’s a dead certainty that none of the Democrats and Vichy Republicans read the bill. Just as with Obamacare, they were going to pass it to see what was in it. Still, we know some of what’s in the bill and it’s not good. Here are a few examples.

The bill begins the process of installing devices in all new cars turning each car into a breathalyzer. I happen to hate drunk drivers as much as the next person but to have that level of government in one’s car is disturbing.

My brother and his family HATED the bad orange man, so they ALL voted for the moron currently in office.  Don't be one of these.

I'll take my chances.  It's the only way the message will be sent.   And outside of Trump, who is actually worth voting for, maybe with the exception of DeSantis?

I'm starting to like DeSantis.  On Tucker last night he had Larry Elder on, who is running for Governor of California.  Evidently he's doing well in the polls, whatever that means...lol.

I guarantee you that if I send DeSantis or Elder a donation, they'll drop like a rock....  It just seems to happen..lol.

Blunt, Burr, and Portman are retiring, and Collins is the only Republican who can win in Maine.  Several of the others have ACU ratings in the 80s ... I don't know, where they greased?  It is very disappointing.  I would not be surprised if the majority of them go along with the next budget.

I didn't want Grassley back in simply because of his age, but his yes vote for the infrastructure deal sealed it.

Likely some more ethanol mandates buried within bill that got his support.

I was able to convince my wife, a Yellow Dog Democrat, to vote for Cruz in the 2016 Primary. She truly hates Trump. I have my work cut out for me to get her to vote Republican again.

Being in Texas, I can only vote for one of those and I will.

Wishful thinking.

Here in Connecticut, it doesn't matter.
No Republican can win statewide office any more.
Doesn't matter if "the Republican" I vote for is conservative or a RINO -- he's gonna lose anyway.

Maybe things are headed for a change...

Just get some decent Dems like Lieberman to run.  I know they exist.

Sure, he was liberal on a lot of things, but when push comes to shove, Joe defended the nation and was a proud patriot that one could be proud of.
