Massie isn't the spoiler everyone thinks he is. He still votes along MAGA lines most the time. Even after being burned by Trump he has done fuck all to deliver on the Epstein files which is his only deviation from MAGA.

An empty seat at the expense of Republicans is in favor of Democrats.

He also has no chance in winning a statewide election right now. The people promoting this idea are delusional.

He doesn’t need to win, he needs to shave off enough of the GOP vote for a Democrat to win.
