He has some 90% support among GOP voters. The two GOP senators that oppose him are leaving the Senate, Flake and Corker. Is Greg Walden saying aloud he is appalled by his vulgarity, his comments on p...y grabbing, his comments on Mexicans as criminals, rapists, “and some, I assume, are good people”? The GOP nearly unanimously followed him in reversing 8 years of talk about fiscal restraint by creating a deficit amid full employment and the top of a business cycle.<br /><br />There is no dissent by Republicans, except from those on the outside. <br /><br />But please cure my myopia by listing all the incumbent Republicans who have broken with Trump. John KIsich? He got 15 percent of the vote in Oregon. Republicans are going along with Trump.<br /><br />Gomez is different from Trump, it appears.. if she did not think so the ad would have said “Vote GOP. Trump/Gomez”.<br /><br />If Trumpis not the leader of the GOP coalition, then we w outdoor see more rogue GOP officeholders.Up Close: Road to the White Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03590477200706751934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1437688200491675121.post-60281898115308922892018-02-28T17:20:27.877-08:002018-02-28T17:20:27.877-08:00She will best nut job Ankerberg hands down.

This candidacy smells of this, but in fairness there's no way to know until they get in office. <br /><br />Feeling' lucky?<br /><br />Usually business types get into politics to advocate for lower taxes and cutting social programs, but sometimes it's just ego.Rick Millwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06754486828557229893noreply@blogger.com
