Thomas Massie

[Bluetus]

13. We probably disagree with Massie on many policies. But that does not make him "the enemy"

any more than Ross Perot or WIlliam Buckley or John Bolton or George W Bush were "enemies". I think they were all misguided, but they would think the same of me. I don't think they were crooks. I don't think they were foreign agents. I certainly don't think they were rapists or sociopaths. And I don't question their sincere belief that they were doing the best things for this country. Even Dick Cheney, although I could never agree with the torture.

These Trump people are different. They are all some combination of fascist, mobsters, thugs, fraudsters, liars, backstabbers, traitors and full-out Nazis. Some more than others, not none of them ever operate in good faith.

I would not put either Massie or Rand Paul in that mix. Those are literally the only two Republicans willing to stand up for our democracy while still intending to win reelection to their office. Occasionally we might be able to include Murkowski in that list, but that really is it.

I don't want a one-party government, not Democrat or Republican. You can't have a healthy democracy that way. We need people of good faith to advocate for points-of-view we can't easily take up. American needs more people like Massie, not fewer.
