Description

Will Saletan gives his take on Sen. Bill Cassidy's remarkable CBS interview, where the outgoing Louisiana Republican criticizes Trump on everything from Iran and affordability to executive power, RFK Jr., vaccines, and the Constitution. Cassidy says RFK Jr. is building public health on "a foundation of lies," warns against putting any president above the law, and reflects on why standing up to Trump ultimately cost him his Senate seat.

Eff this guy. Glad he lost. Just found his balls. He should have his medical license pulled for voting for RFK Jr.

If Trump had endorsed him he'd still be on his knees licking Trump's shoes.

Sorry Will, he most certainly put his integrity on the back burner for power.

The fact that this is what counts as courage now tells you a helluva lot about the republican party.
