  Barf.
context: He lost his seat due to Trump‘s support of an opponent and was under attack by a mob in the Capitol. And he still is not openly breaking with Trump, still ruled by fear of him and his mob. >
  
  Trump probably has a picture of this guy fucking a goat and that is why he has the loyalty that he has. >
  
  He looks more like a guy that gets fucked.  Speaking as a gay. >
  
  I have no respect for these spineless leaders who only speak up when their term is ending/over. If they really cared they would have spoken up when it counted. >
  
  Yeah this dude can fuck right off. You don’t get to complain about the tiger after you’ve been riding it for years. Enjoy obscurity, shithead. >
  
  
  In my opinion, the major shift was due to Reagan and the influence of the Christian rightist pressure group,  Moral Majority) (founder Jerry Falwell) in the 80s. Reagan himself wasn't very akin to this organization but the symbiosis of the conservative political movement and fundamentalist Christian right enabled mutual benefits. Then the next decades this became mainstream in the party prior to the party becoming insurrectionistic. >
  
  100% true.  Same-sex marriage being legalized is what turned them into traitors.
  I'd place Jerry Falwell Sr among the top 5 villains in all American history.  Our country would be a very different (and better) place now if not for him.  Not only would we have never had Trump, but we likely wouldn't have had George W. Bush either. >
  
  Outgoing? This spineless jaghole helped build todays GOP. Dont let him take off that uniform! >
  
  But remember to buy his book detailing all of the shit he never opposed but now find terrible! >
  
  Another asshole unwilling to hold his own party accountable. An embarrassing interview. >
  
  
  outgoing Republican congressman >
  
  You helped facilitate those changes, fuckhead. You're only crying about it now because the tiger you rode in on decided to bite you next.
  All Republicans are bad. Period. >
  
  He still fails to acknowledge the obvious pandering to white nationalists by the GOP, even on the way out and when directly asked about it. He claims there's no place for white nationalists in the party. Seriously? If he actually believes white nationalists don't find a home in the republican party, he's just not paying attention at all. Not every republican is a nazi but every nazi is a republican. R politicians acknowledging that is the first step in seriously dealing with the problem. We can't go anywhere until that bridge is built.
