41. The ensuing general election shitshow. It would be better than any reality show on TV.
Not to mention he will make america great, and he will help alleviate us of the pressure we have from freedom of speech.
I am still curious about the new wall - will it be eco friendly? What color will it be?
Out of curiosity GTS, what has a first term rep from CNY done to capture your attention?

Vote in Congress. Poorly. Often. I think his Heritage score is like 35%. I certainly don't agree with Heritage on everything, but there tends to be VERY strong overlap. Amash, for example, has a Heritage score of 90%. Most of the NY GOP delegation doesn't even have an A from GOA, and GOA only scores critical gun votes. So you had to make a pretty deliberate gun control move to not get an A.

Don't you think a GOPer from a moderate district should be in the middle? Your mentioning of him sparked my attention because it's my hometown district and it's statistically the most contested district in the country having flipped between D & R every single time in the last four election cycles.

We have very different definitions of middle. I genuinely believe compared to even the Contract With America time frame most of the GOP is WELL left of where they use to be. After ObamaCare made blue dogs an endangered species, the left is HUGELY left of where they were under Bill Clinton.

obviously we will agree to disagree. I've said it before and I will say it again, this viewpoint of yours is IMO extremely distorted and completely outside the realm of reality. i'm not going to turn this into a pissing match going into the details.
All I will say is that he serves his constituents well and his values are exactly in-line with the values of his voters. If you want to take the stance that moderate GOPers from moderate regions are wrong for taking moderate approaches then I will only take it as a verification as to my statement regarding your viewpoint being out of touch with reality.
