Tim Sheehy seems like a very good candidate. He's a former navy seal. Starting to get some attention, so I am sure he'll be the next target for attack from the left and probably from Trump, too. Cue the "RINOs all endorsing him" spin but maybe he can lay low and pull of the upset of the "moderate" fraud who has been representing a red state. Would be a big get if he can flip the seat.

Depends. If this guy sticks to the issues and how Tester has marched lockstep with the dems, then absolutely.

On the other hand, if Trump shows up and opens his fat pie hole whining about “election fraud” with no evidence, then a democrat win is guaranteed.

Let’s hope the GOP takes Senate seats in Montana, Ohio and West Virginia.

Doubt it. Tester is entrenched with the rancher crowd. Big money and tester is popular where it counts up here. Tester went hard left after last election and has been trying to straddle the middle more recently.

I don’t disagree but it is something I’ll never understand. How any rancher could support that guy is beyond me.

So, business as usual with him is what you're saying. He has always done this.

By the way...Red Lodge is one of my favorite spots. Do you live there now?

Montana folks are skeptical of politicians who aren’t from around there. Many of the rancher/farmer crowd are from the same stock of people who reside In Minnesota. Culturally conservative, but philosophically liberal. Add the California hippies to them and you have a lot who will vote Dem.

Thr dude has like 2% liberty Score and has voted with Biden, Bernie Sanders, and AOC virtually lockstep.

I will never understand how someone like that can represent a state like Montana.

Is the 2020 election a central part of his platform?

If it is, he will not beat Tester.

And to be fair, Steve Daines is worthless. But again, he's in with the rancher crowd and keeps getting re-elected.

They have enough money that they don’t care.
