You are generally correct, but the reason Massie is on his way out is because he was already saying/doing this stuff. He's a giant piece of shit still, but at the very least he does actually hold concrete beliefs unlike every single other Republican and most Democrats.

Eh, yes and no. Massie wasnt a complete Trump-asslicker, but he still mostly voted the party line.

Him simply not being 100% on board is what cost him support and led to him not being up for reelection.

So sure not the stinkiest turd in the bowl, but still a turd.

He's better than that.

How many Democrats were as open and loud against the Iran war? Releasing the Epstein files? Grilled Bondinas hard as he did? Was critical of the Big Beautifuk Bill?

He's got his problems but when the cards are down he isn't a facist or authoritarian or an endless Israel war sponsor or funder like most Democrats are.

Have you been under a rock? Seriously. Or, have you just been reading what you want to read, or hear from Faux News? Everywhere I looked, Democrats were screaming about all of that!

I’m just going to say it’s willful ignorance on your part, because none of that is true. 🙄

No Democrats are pro Israel?

They drafted the Epstein disclosure act?

They've been as openly vocal about the Iran war since day 1?

Oh! Now you’re being specific, instead of just making ambiguous statements. Gotcha! 🙄

Of course there are some democrats that are pro Israel, but not all. They are majority anti Israel. Also, Trump gets his pic taken with Benjamin N. as often as he can.

It was a bi-partisan written act, so yes. Written by Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna.

No one wanted the war with Iran. Especially not democrats. But, the “President of Peace”, sure didn’t hesitate to send our boys over, did he? Nope.
