    Her career is as dead as the Obamacare freshmans who voted their conscience.

    Read the room. Know your base. Blame the other for ruining the country.

    premature ejockulation on your part !

    do you even understand what a swing district is?

    do you even understand the demographics in Holly, Mi?

    it has the same type of demographics as the district that
    fellow Michigan lawmaker Justin Amash represents.​

    I'm more in a salsa district than a swing district.

    There sure are a ton of communist countries in Europe. And 1st world Asia. And our neighbor to the north. With their government supported healthcare so that even poor people in society can go the Dr if needed. And that stupid free public college a ton of countries have. Because student debt in this country helps everyone so much.

    f'ing communists the world over.

    Yeah basically. He is in a Trump territory and if he supports legislation against Trump he will lose his seat. The dems will primary him out if he doesn't vote to impeach which is a waste of time. He's bailing to save his ass and doesn't want to lose his spot because the dems went full Leroy Jinkins on impeachment.

    It's actually bad because it may give others ideas... plus it makes their impeachment effort look even more pointless when people are scared to risk their career for it. They see it as a liability in Trump districts and we may see more rats jump off the burning ship.

    This is good. Let's voters know who the zealots are and we can vote them out of office. People who run around screaming about their virtues are usually the least virtuous by the way.

    Yeah exactly my gut reaction. Is anyone shocked that a self serving politician would do this?

    No not shocked at all. But I am especially impressed by Democratic politicians who are at risk and still chose to vote for impeachment at the risk of losing their seats. Too bad there aren't any Republican congressmen that would do the same.

    Well Justin Amash. Before the Ukraine stuff, but he could see the sort of person Trump is.

    Hey props... stick to your guns. Go down with your ship.

    Some people wanna feed their kids though and keep their job lol. I can't bash a guy for doing what he must to save his ass. Unless more follow this is just a one time deal and not worth too much thought.
