re: Post your reaction to Massie losing

The claim has consistently been that Massie provided the tie-breaking vote for the bill. He did not.
That wasn't the claim. I claimed that Massie voted FOR the bill. Mo Jeaux said I was lying, that he voted it out of committee. When indeed he was the deciding vote out of committee and then he voted for it when it came to the floor. So I didn't lie. And I don't think Trump has ever made the claim of being a "principled conservative" like the Ivory Tower Massie.

He's not going to admit it. Now it's whataboutism with Trump. Trump did it too. I thought principled people stood on principle. The more Massie went down the Epstein rabbit hole, the more he became a Democrat.

Trump backed it too.
No, no, no, no! I was called a LIAR because I said Massie voted for Biden's Spending bill, which he did. This ain't about Trump. You and Mo Jeaux were wrong need to OWN it. Your boy Massie was only principled when it came to Trump. More than willing to hedge a bit of principle for Biden and the Dems.

Its pretty crazy how they gave Massie 314 votes.
Massie was just ONE of the 314 Yay votes. And he definitely voted for it according to the Office of the Clerk, U.S. House.

Are you still pushing the “he voted for it” routine?
Thomas Massie voted in favor of the Fiscal Responsibility Act.
In May 2023, Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, provided the deciding “yes” vote in the House Rules Committee that advanced the Fiscal Responsibility Act to the House floor Fox News. His vote was crucial because it gave the bill a narrow margin to pass the Rules Committee, ensuring it could proceed to a floor vote before the June 5 deadline to avoid a government default Forward Kentucky.
The Fiscal Responsibility Act suspended the federal debt limit until January 1, 2025, cut federal spending by $1.5 trillion over the next decade (including $11 billion from pandemic funds), and included a provision for a 1% discretionary spending cut if Congress failed to pass all 12 mandatory appropriation bills by year’s end Forward Kentucky.
Massie’s support for the bill was notable given his history as a deficit hawk and his reputation as “Mr. No” on debt issues. He argued that the spending caps and the 1% cut would create a level playing field and incentivize responsible fiscal behavior Forward Kentucky+1.
The bill ultimately passed the House with 314 ayes to 117 nays and then moved to the Senate, where it also passed.
This is all I could find. For some reason it's not on his Heritage Action list.

Even weirder
The Biden-McCarthy agreement suspends the debt limit with no cap through Jan. 1, 2025, while also cutting non-defense spending to near fiscal 2022 levels, capping growth at 1% for the next two years and proposing non-mandatory caps for the four years after. It also claws back some money aimed at the Internal Revenue Service and some unspent COVID-19 pandemic funds. "I've been in Congress for a decade and this is the first real bill that cuts spending," Massie said.
So now we also know, Massie speaks out of both sides of his mouth. I was for it before I was against it. Principled, I tell you.

"he's no longer representing his constituents" doesn't work.
Why doesn't this work? He enjoined himself with a progressive Democrat, Ro Khanna, and absolutely embarrassed himself and his constituents when he read the names of so-called Epstein perps, who were only men on a police lineup list, at an attempt to gotcha President Trump.
Kentucky voters should be congratulating themselves for getting rid of him, especially after his concession speech. Like somebody said, he turned out to be exactly who his former gf, West, said he was.

Representative Thomas Massie voted “no” on the final passage of the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023 on May 31, 2023.
So strange that he would vote FOR IT to pass out of committee though. Weird.

Massie has been consistent on appropriations votes during his congressional career.
I didn't move anything. You said I lied about him voting for a Biden spending bill, Did he or didn't he? We're about to find out who's lying.

Even assuming your framing is true/honest (which isn't guaranteed), the voters of his district voted overwhelmingly for him AFTER this happened, so that doesn't explain this 180 a short 1.5 years later
So why would his voters be so against him? That's his people.
quote:
So like I said, you lied (or you don’t understand what you read).
So he voted FOR it to get it out of the Rules Committee but AGAINST it when it went to the floor for a vote? What a stable genius.
quote:
Seems you believe he should just go along w/ having a bigger, more intrusive government.
Seems he didn't have a problem voting FOR Biden's spending bills the way he does with Trump. Care to explain?

Only Trump spending. He voted FOR Biden's spending package.

Oh, I'm sure he is. His mouth overrode his arse. Play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. His antics will definitely be used against him by the prosecution. But, in everyday life, if the black guy does the same with any other white guy, I believe the white guy walks under self defense.
