We need courageous high-integrity people like Adam Kinzinger in government. I know he will shake the dust from his clothes and get back in the fight.

Trump IS a sissy-- he never yells those extreme insults at the subjects of those insults. They're always far away when he yells at them, and he's alone onstage with his microphone, adoring fans at his feet. He can't co-exist in 50/50 relationships with other politicians, being too ignorant of issues and too insecure to interact as peers with them-- that's why Obama is so much in his mind. Obama is his worst nightmare. Remember who he didn't insult: Putin. And why: he claimed Putin had said he was intelligent. As far as he was concerned, that was the way to proceed with a foreign affairs agenda-- if the guy likes you, be his ally! Ignore Liberals who say he's a killer and our enemy, because who cares about that? It's the same with Kim Jong Un-- a man who has one policy, which is Nuclear Weapons. In all his time with his new best friend, this item escaped Trump completely, and he talked no end about how he was going to de-nuclearize N. Korea. He was sure of it because, Kim liked him so much and kept inviting him. I imagine he spoke pretty freely to these friends on whatever subject interested them, and that would be our defense secrets. I hope not but what would stop him?

Great discussion. I like hearing from Adam and Liz Cheney about the behind closed doors discussions among Republicans in Congress. I feel a lot of optimism about Millennials and Gen Z being politically engaged and being heard.

Democrats are hindered by inborn political correctness. To ridicule Trump meant ridiculing his voters-- which would be a weird thing, and it's my understanding that Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer were adamantly opposed to Democratic legislators making fun of or even politely correcting the outragous lies of Trump ABOUT THEM, and about government itself. This has been a massive mistake, if it's true.

Kingzinger got fired by his constituents. Why would I care what that party traitor looser has to say?

If only he'd realized that ahead of time, I'm sure he'd never have spoken up. Don't only fools behave like that?
