“It’s exhausting,” centrist Rep. Charlie Dent (R-Pa.), who announced his retirement last fall, told The Hill. “What we’ve gotten out of the administration is all this disruption, and it’s very destabilizing.”


Dent had nothing negative to say. That's good.

Those who liked the direction the country was headed are apt to 'cut loose' on Trump.

Those who think the nation was headed steadily down the commode during the past thirty or forty years are likely to withhold fire.

First off, Dent is about as Left as any generic Rat pol you can think of. He is Pro Abortion, has said questionable stuff on guns, was MIA on getting rid of Obamacare. I also know that he has been looking for an excuse to bail since the Tea Party started. I was at a fundraiser years ago where he kept a low profile and left early because he was scared people might ask him about stopping Obamacare. It was pathetic. He was also one of the early supporters of No Labels.

If this is they type of GOPer heading for the doors and slamming Trump, good riddance.

I sense the reason that they're "retiring" is that they no longer can just sit back and enjoy the gravy train they had up until 2017. Do nothing and get paid for it.

If this is a by-product of "cleaning out the swamp", well, that's what I voted for!

Goodbye, fellas. Don't let the door hit ya on the way out...!

What amazes me about those people is the sense of political entitlement.  The concept that they are just the representative conduit through which ordinary people are supposed to determine the direction of the country is completely absent.  They're offended that so many voters don't seem to agree with them.
