[The Purge]

Do you think any DemonRATS would dare to do this.....their new committee assignment would be bathroom attendant!....One thing about the ABNORMALS, they do NOT think nor VOTE for themselves!

The eight Republicans anti-Trump RINOs who bucked on border funding joined 177 Democrats in voting against President Donald Trump’s border wall funding request.

Call this The List of Political Suicides. At least, it would be, save the fact that half are leaving office, anyway.

They are: Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and Carlos Curbelo, both from Florida; Justin Amash and Fred Upton, both from Michigan; Ken Buck from Colorado; Will Hurd from Texas; Erik Paulsen from Minnesota; and David Valadao from California.

Meanwhile, 11 other Republicans outright skipped the vote.

What were their reasons for bucking their party’s tide — for turning aside their president’s wishes — for bluntly telling the conservatives of America: Sorry, we’re with Democrats on this one?

Waste.

Wasteful spending, as Amash put it in a tweet.

“This massive, wasteful spending bill — stuffed with unrelated items — passed 217-185,” Amash wrote. “It’s amazing how some wall funding causes my fellow Republicans to embrace big government.”

How dare some calling themselves a Conservative not agree to a massive spending bill.

There was a time when Repubs pretended to be against massive government spending.

Now you are attacked for holding that view by the Repubs.

Funny how times change

National security should not be a political football, there is no room to compromise.

Amash is for real, Boehner hated him

Amash just doesn't get it, never has, never will, more interested in his political future than what is right for the country.
