Justin Amash Talks A Mean Game When Cameras Ain't On!

Republican criticizes Trump and now faces a backlash from the base.
Rep. Justin Amash (R-MI) will criticize Donald J. Trump but won't do shit about it. He'll back down like Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE) Sen. Richard Burr (R-NC), Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC). They talk a mean game behind closed doors and social media, but their asses won't do shit about handling their party's standard bearer.

The Republicans fear Trump and his "base."

Amash, a libertarian-leaning conservative made remarks on social media earned him a nickname from Trump and a primary challenger for 2020.


The Grand Rapids Republican supports Trump nearly 100% of the time. However when it came to the Robert Mueller report in which it didn't exonerate Trump from Russia meddling, Amash spoke the "I" word.

Amash made the remarks that said Trump "engaged in impeachable conduct." Now he faces a primary challenger in the upcoming primary election.

Michigan state Rep. Jim Lower made his intentions known Monday morning, announcing that instead of seeking a third term in the state legislature, he will run against Amash for their party's nomination for the 2020 election. Amash has served as the representative for Michigan's 3rd Congressional District since 2011.

Republicans and the far-white have decided to throw the lawmaker under the bus. 
Trump and Republicans upset that Justin Amash criticized the way they handled the Mueller Report.
Amash's remarks have now gotten Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) upset. The Minority Leader went on Fox News to blast Amash. He said that he's a Nancy Pelosi Republican. He said that he's an attention seeker and his remarks do not reflect how Republicans feel about the Mueller report.

Amash joins several of his Democratic colleagues in Congress in arguing the president is deserving of impeachment. Not among them is House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who will ultimately need to sign off on the idea before impeachment proceedings begin. “I know it’s going to take courage on the part of all of our members to stick with a program that might not be as fast as they want,” Pelosi reportedly said on a conference call with House Democrats late last month. She added that she’s “not struggling with this decision” to hold off on impeaching President Trump. Pelosi said last week that “every day gives grounds for impeachment in terms of his obstruction of justice,” but her fundamental position on the issue has not changed.
