i'm 77 and have been a Republican most of my adult life although i have voted for Democrats. I didn't vote for the malignancy that is Trump in '16, '20 or '24, nor have i voted for any Republican who will not state publicly that Trump lost in 2020. It appears that I will never again be able to vote for a Republican during the remainder of my life. They are all traitors to the Constitution.

What is wrong with these people? How much money are they making. The fact that men like Cassidy have watched Donald Trump destroy our country and still kiss his ass is fucking beyond the pale.

Sorry, but I'll take Platner over Susan Collins any day. Electing Susan Collins will help to keep the status quo when it come to the damage that Trump can do.

Senator Cassidy is a medical doctor who voted to ensure that RFK Jr would be confirmed as the Secretary of Health and Human Services. That tells you all you need to know about Bill Cassidy, coward to the very end. Good riddance.
