Which makes the NPC label of Massie as "GOPE" or "Rino" that much more ignorance-exposing and, vicariously, hilarious.

I am arguing that the hills that he planted his flag on were not reasonable at this moment in time.
Which specific ones and why?

fricking dumbass response. You and your ilk will be railing about how bad things are in a few years and it will be because you and your ilk vote for the same stupid shite over and over.
Voting for the same stupid shite over and over wouldve been voting for Massie who had been in office for 14 years. Seems the people of Ky wanted something different.

The question is what changed in 1.5 years
Posted on 5/19/26 at 8:19 pm to SlowFlowPro
One obvious thing that changed was Thomas Massie.

What specific policy positions did he shift on since November 2024?
Posted on 5/19/26 at 8:22 pm to SlowFlowPro
I didn’t say his policy changed. I said he changed.
You might be surprised to learn that people vote for candidates they like.

What public facing positions /stances did he change and promote to alert his voters? Epstein files? What else?
Outside of Epstein I can't think of anything he did differently publicly in this 1.5 years (and I don't think the Epstein files were what made his voters change)

Last I checked the amount of government employees have decreased by a substantial amount. This is a start. Working toward doing away with the irs, doe, etc. you do you though.

He became an insufferable prick. People tend to react to that kind of thing.
You should probably take notes.

You’re back to policy.
I don’t think it had much to do with policy.

No. He decided to get into the shite with Trump and joined in the pissing match.
I don’t really blame him as Trump has been personally attacking him for years.
But, if you’re running your persona on being above the fray and then you’re no longer above the fray, it’s a tough sell.
