Justin Amash, when he was a Republican, was one of those who advocated on behalf of President Trump being impeached. He subsequently switched from the Republican Party to Independent. Now, he is considering the third-party option, hoping to get the nomination for the Libertarian Party.

From Axios:

“For something new. For a government that secures our rights. For equality before the law. For an end to cronyism. For a government that fulfills its purpose and recognizes its limits. For practical approaches based in humility and trust of the people. For an honest, principled president who will defend the Constitution and put individuals first.”

The link for the story is here. In another post, Axios listed six arguments that Justin Amash advanced for impeaching President Trump:

Trump asked then-FBI Director James Comey to stop investigating then-national security adviser Michael Flynn.

Trump asked then-Attorney General Jeff Sessions to un-recuse himself from the Russia investigation.

Trump asked then-White House counsel Don McGahn to have Mueller removed, stating it was necessary due to conflicts of interest.

Trump asked McGahn to state that the request to remove Mueller never happened, suggesting McGahn could be fired if that did not take place.

Trump asked his former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski to tell Sessions to limit the scope of Mueller’s investigation.

Trump wielded his pardon power to influence associates facing prosecution from Mueller, like Michael Cohen and Paul Manafort, not to cooperate.

Oh look! Another attention whore!

Seems like we’ve had this conversation before but it bears repeating. The only platform that anyone running against Trump is…”I’m not Trump!” Until the Chinesecommunist Originated Virus Infecting Disease of 2019 (COVID19) was unleashed on our country, we were doing better than we have in decades. Trump was a danger to the entrenched deep state powers that be, henceforth he had to go…by any means. TRUMP 2020!

I’ve been stimulated in 2020!

Here’s hoping for a second stimulus payment soon.

Show me the money Mr. Trump.

The Free Shit Army stands with you.

So the little cockroach is now a Ross Perot wannabe!

This is interesting. Little Justin has decided to sacrifice his seat in Congress for “the greater good”, saving us from Trump. Must be his congressional campaign polling told him he was polling 5th in a 3 way race.
And it’s interesting that Little Justin hasn’t mentioned Pervy Joe at all.

Even those in Congress don’t she Biden as a serious contender. 🙂

“see”

Unless there’s a woman nearby, in which case “she” might be appropriate. If you want to smell her hair, you gotta get in line behind Biden. He’s a very serious contender in that race!

Funny how “saving us from Trump” always involves electing a Proggie Democrat.

Maybe folks -like- a President who likes America, and Americans, and likes -us- to win.

Are you walking around in ChiCom sweatshop shoes? New Balance makes shoes here and in the UK. Not cheap, but very good ones.

Well, bless his heart. Someone shows up who might take votes away from blindingly braind-dead Biden.

I think he should go for it – as hard as he can.

Let’s not forget that a LOT of Bernie-heads said that they’ll vote Trump if their chosen doesn’t get the nomination!

UpNorth

There are hushed rumors of dem voters saying that they’ll stay home if Gropin’ Joe is the nominee. I’ve seen 3 stories on it, but they disappear within an hour or two of posting.

Sweet!

Someone to steal more votes from Biden.

The Other Whitey

Who the fuck is this guy and why should I care?

I don’t know what most of you cultists are whining about. He is going to hurt Biden more than Trump.

They are both running on the same platform; not Trump.

I’m hearing whining, but it’s not coming from where you think it is.

He’s still butthurt that he can’t go BALLS DEEP FOR BERNIE one more time.
