      It’s Montana though, so the GOP is still pretty safe on this one.. right?

      „Health reasons“ for Republicans is usually something like:

      – In the Epstein files
      – Paid for an abortion
      – Wife caught him in bed with another man
      – Photos of him when he used to be a drag performer

      They’re all hoping to be overlooked when the pendulum swings back and the indictments start coming

      Just a reminder that Zinke was Secretary of the Interior during Trumps first term until he was forced to resign due to a corruption scandal. Montanan’s thought it was a good idea to make him a congressman, and now he’s resigning again. What did he do this time?

      Genuinely asking. Since most of us are pretty clear that the fix is in, why are they dropping out? Don’t they get reelected as long as they support dear leader?

      At first I thought this was the guy that slammed the reporter to the floor and broke his glasses, but that’s just a different piece of crap. All so similar hard to tell them apart.

      Guys, he’s not resigning. He’s just not going to run again. He’s going to carry out the remaining term he has. So it’s not like the Rs lost a seat.

      Time to impeach and remove the orange clown. Instead of continuing to protect him they are walking away.

      He’ll probably will get better medical care as a retired congressman than as a veteran.

      He’s not stepping down, he’s just not running for reelection. Misleading headline.

      He’s not stepping down. He’s not seeking reelection. There’s a big difference between the two.

      I remember him! He’s the guy who forced his staff to raise the flag on the building whenever he was in his office.
