re: Rep. Tom Rice Latest Republican Censured By Party For Breaking With Trump

There's already multiple people lining up to primary him. The Horry County School Board chairman just announced his candidacy and one of our local state representatives from Socastee (the favorite if he runs) is likely to soon announce. Rice is gone.

And there all lining up to be Yes-men.

Perhaps it's two different philosophies. Personally, I don't want a politician who caters to everything I want. Because it means they'll do anything to keep their position, not necessarily do what's best for their jurisdiction.

Ironically, that is what Democrats do. They stand up for whatever is popular for their base, not concerned that what they support is actually bad for their base in the long term. Yet you all wish to go down the right-wing equivalent.

You all realize the GOP lost all 3 branches of power at the federal level.

If nothing else, I respect Rice for standing up for what he believes in.
