Republican Congressman Joins Democrats in Condemning Trump Over Maduro Capture

[Billiejeens]

Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie has decided to spend the days following one of the most successful U.S. operations in decades acting as the Trump administration’s loudest internal critic.

Instead of celebrating the arrest of Venezuelan socialist tyrant Nicolás Maduro, Massie has been unloading a stream of attacks that sound eerily similar to the talking points coming straight from the radical left and the corporate press.

Within hours of the strike and arrest, Massie took to social media accusing President Trump of deception, imperial ambition, and secretly plotting to seize Venezuela’s oil. He mocked the administration’s description of the operation as an arrest supported by the military, while claiming Trump had announced he was “taking over the country.”

That characterization does not line up with reality, but it does line up perfectly with MSNBC panels and Democrat press releases.

Massie then tried to portray the administration as internally inconsistent, citing Attorney General Pam Bondi, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Senator Mike Lee. The implication was that unless every official uses identical phrasing, the operation must be illegal. That is not constitutional analysis. That is nitpicking in search of a headline.

BJ -
I just don't understand why Kentucky Republicans in his district do not wish to be represented in Congress.
He's a grandstanding fringe buffoon; he will never be more.

 

[Oddball]

Massie ain't a Senator.

And he's still far less of a backstabbing ***** than the neocon ****** Lindsey Graham, whom Trump still inexplicably endorses.

Police-up that title, Massie is not a Senator, merely a 4th district congressman from KY.

What was "successful" about this? The Maduro regime continues under the VP.

Nothing has changed.

He, she, it watches Fox News all day every day. So, it knows exactly nothing accurate.

Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie has decided to spend the days following one of the most successful U.S. operations in decades acting as the Trump administration’s loudest internal critic...

Who?

Oh.

Yawn.

 

[Billiejeens]

Dumb in the extreme.

Traitor!

I wouldn't consider Massie a traitor.

That is insanely stupid
Even for you.

Massie isn’t owned by the Zionists. So the OP hates him for it.

Zionist ******* billionaire traitors are pouring millions into Massie’s district to defeat him. Traitors like the OP support this.

 

[gipper]

I wouldn't consider Massie a traitor.

You are a traitor.

 

[Crepitus]

That is insanely stupid
Even for you.

But it's true. It's business as usual in Venezuela today. The only thing that changed is the person at the top of the heap.

He had the opportunity to change things but didn't because the opposition leader got "his" Nobel prize.

You may dance and deny all you wish but these things are facts.

Good

Massie needs to be replaced by an actual Republican by any means necessary.

So "actual republicans" are now defined as bitches for the Likud party?

Seriously?

 

[kyzr]

This thread went off the rails, Massie tends to make that happen...

 

[pknopp]

Massie is what MAGA once pretended to be.

Massie is one dude....Four RINO dicksmokers torpedoed the censure of Ilhan Omar, yet not a peep from any of the Trumpsters about those assfucks, let alone millions poured in to unseat them..

 

[ColonelAngus]

That seems on brand for Massie.

Dude has an EE from MIT. He is not a tard.

He is a strict Constitutionalist and I respect him being principled, but I support the action against Maduro.
