Thomas Massie may delay the bailout... Congress livid with him

[Warlord]

I guess the Trump sycophancy hasn't paid off.

Yep. Trump hates opposition. They must be crushed. I'm surprised he hasn't turned against Rand yet.

Is there any delay here that isn't caused by pork barrel politicians trying to avoid going on the record with their votes?

Well if he is doing it on principle he is missing a lot of opportunity by not taking interviews and telling them why .

What if he explained why and no one pointed a microphone at him?

I do not think any of them will mind going on record for the vote . So if that is it , wasted effort certainly .

This is too funny. Kerry hasn't forgotten that Massie made fun of his political 'science' degree.

Thomas is getting it from both sides. Wow. Reminds me of how they treated Ron.

Except they actually do seem to be scared to vote for it on the record.

And I don't blame them. Going on the record voting for this much corporatist pork because of a non-emergency like this one could bite them all in the ass.

John Kerry seems very Presidential.

John Kerry seems very Presidential.

These days he does. That bar is now low.

Missing Tweet: Thow Massie out of the Republican Party.

Yes, throw Massie out, he's far too good to be a REAL Republican. Thank you.

Yes, throw Massie out, he's far too good to be a REAL Republican. Thank you.

So vote for Biden?

The Mantra of Abominations

"But...but...Donald Trump wants to clean out 'the Swamp!' He's just playing 3D Chess!"

 

[RonZeplin]

So vote for Biden?

Vote for Vermin Supreme, Austin Peterson, or Justin Amash etc....

Just say NO to jagoffs.

 

[familydog]

Massie is quite possibly committing political suicide by doing this. He will not stop the bill and he will change very few minds. He is the only good Congressman in the House. I hope he knows what he is doing.

 

[Theocrat]

You Voted For "Biden," Anyway

So vote for Biden?

You're a Trump supporter, so you already have a "Biden" in office; he's just able to remember his lines, unlike the real Biden.

If you needed more proof that Massie is the new Ron Paul then this is it. The viciousness of opposition from both Left and Right and yet Thomas will take it in his stride just like Dr. Paul.

I hope he stays strong. There is already a backlash :

The Reckoning

Actually, what Rep. Massie is doing is brilliant. He's calling out all the so-called conservatives to account for their values by pushing them to vote for something which reveals that they're not truly conservatives.

No. I'd rather not this go around.

I don't disagree. However, will his constituents find him brilliant at the ballot box?

So we are to believe...

Trump is team good guy trying to basically be Lincoln and keep the country from shattering (I understand this) while Massie is wrench throwing agent for royal death family. (I have a severe case of cognitive dissonance over that)

I'm going to have to form an opinion after all this smoke clears. These puzzle pieces don't fit together.

Massie's Constituents Know Him

How do you think Rep. Massie was able to get elected, in the first place? They know where his feet are standing.
