Thank you.
The Pro #Putin faction of the #RepublicanParty seems to be growing. I encourage each one of them to enlist in the #Russian Army. Are you listening Russ #Fulcher from Idaho? Do your part to help the Putin-Trump cabal gain more power and money.
I guessed 13, but that’s only because I know who all the excremental loudmouths and shameless sycophants are:
Biggs, Boebert, Comer, De La Cruz, Gaetz, Gosar, Greene, Higgins, Jordan, Luna, Massie, Roy, Stefanik.
Kinda surprised by Van Drew, but if you can so easily betray your party and your constituents, treason is just a small step away.
@flexghost The saddest part is that I believe most of those 112 politicians are personally pro-Ukranian. They voted as they did to stay on Trump's right side, and preserve their own jobs as Johnson very nearly did.
Voting on your personal interest over the public one, seems perfectly natural to them; a form of capitalism even, where they are in competition with other "market forces" like freedom and justice, and votes are just a currency, easily convertible at a favorable rate to any other.
I have not checked the list, because I know the usual suspects are there.
The list should not be that long however.
There are many GOP that can not grow a spine.
Despicable…
