Nope. You are jumping to conclusions. Both Massie and Rand Paul said they didn't want to give the federal government increased powers. That Trump's emergency declaration was overstepping his authority.

"I can't vote to give extra-Constitutional powers to the president," Paul told Republican supporters and lawmakers at a dinner at Western Kentucky University on Saturday, The Bowling Green Daily News reports.

Like it or hate it, it is who these two are. They are consistent.

So Thomas Massie — one of the most vocal critics of the Israel Lobby in the Potomac Beltway — is actually a secret Zionist?

And Massie’s opposition to Trump — one of the most pro-Israel Presidents in recent history — is all a head feint to cover up this fact?

That truly is some 18D chess.

Edit: It was a mistake for him to back DeSantis, but what do you expect? Trump posted to throw his arse out of the party (literal phrase)? Massie embodies the MAGA spirit, Trump is fantastic but he is not always perfect. The Massie/Amash/Paul trio are the fiscal, christian, leaders who dont bow to any political pressure.




And without Trump they’d still be do nothing republicans with a Democrat president.

Everyone is cheering DOGE, then when Massie comes in wanting to make the REAL cuts needed, all these Trump apologists fall right in line. Sad to see.



Real cuts? What cuts have been made since he was elected in 2012?

I’ll hang up and let y’all list everything he did to stop the last two Democrats presidents.


He’s the same as every republican has been, all talk.

Both Massie and Rand Paul are Koch Brothers, Ayn Randites.

Belief in free trade, which has never existed on this planet.

Open borders, but pardon me will I lock my five deadbolts on the front door types.

Wait a second. It’s now a bad thing to support the best governor in the country?? Guys Trump is NOT a god. He’s a fantastic president, but not infallible.

None, because Republicans don't want to actually cut anything...except a precious few like Thomas Massie.

How is this so hard to comprehend?

This may be the dumbest MAGA talking point yet.

The pro-Israel lobby already promised infinite money to fund a primary opponent if he runs for Mitch's seat, after failing to fund a pro-Israel opponent last year.

This Massive stuff has the NPCs flailing.

This is what happens when someone actually tried to cut spending and doesn't rely on virtue signalling

Massie sticks to principals and DeSantis more closely aligned with those than Trump does.

Massie isn't MAGA because he actually believes in what most MAGA congressmen SAY that believe in, but the difference is that he stands on business.

Well, every politician. They're all the same, with few exceptions. Massie and Rand are the exceptions, not Trump.

Are you kidding me? Trump is the easiest guy to hate, because he bullies and hilariously insults everyone who opposes him. You don’t think “Little Marco” hates him? Marco saw the writing on the wall, and got in line, but you just know he’ll piss on trump’s grave one day.

He called Warren Pocahontas in the SOTU She has to be seething.

90% of the mainstream media, entertainment industry and professional sports world are against him, and sadly that shapes the opinion of much our dumbed down nation. To be fair, I was over 50 (Trump 1.0) before I began seeing the full picture.

You are a clown. Take your RDS pill.

Desantis didn’t stab Trump in the back drama queen, he ran as an alternative in case the Dems legal plan worked against Trump.

Question for all the Massie cock gobblers.

Has he actually accomplished anything since becoming a government teat sucker?

I enjoy his interviews and his YouTube "I'm just a poor farmer who built my house with my bare hands and power it with a Tesla battery, ride muh horse over them thar mountains into DC every Monday for work" shtick.

And I agree in theory with his Kill the Federal Government shtick.

But has he actually accomplished anything?

Hate to say it but he comes across as AOC without the big titties. All talk no results.

WTF is he supposed to do? Just keep backing the insane spending Republicans CONSTANTLY want? Is that what would make him a success in your eyes? Should he support the continuance of the Patriot Act and NDAA? Is that what would make him great in your eyes?

Ron Paul wasn't able to get shite passed in his time in office. However, a frickton of the Right are now anti war, skeptical AF of the FBI/CIA and question the fed reserve just because of him pushing that message consistently and never wavering on it.
