I LOVE watching Trumplicans self-destruct, rejecting people who tell the truth.

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) likens GOP to “Titanic”:

“We’re in the middle of this slow sink. We have a band playing on the deck, telling everybody it’s fine, and meanwhile Donald Trump’s running around, trying to find women’s clothing and get on the first lifeboat.”

Rep. Kevin McCarthy publicly endorsed Cheney’s ouster on Sunday but Kinzinger pointed out that the House minority leader has seemingly changed his views on the role former President Donald Trump played on the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. “Liz Cheney is saying exactly what Kevin McCarthy said the day of the insurrection. She’s just consistently been saying it,” Kinzinger said, noting many of his fellow party members appear way too eager to put the riot behind them.

“We have so many people including our leadership in the party that have not admitted that this is what it is, which was an insurrection led by the president of the United States, well-deserving of a full accounting from Republicans,” he said.

Kinzinger, who was one of 10 Republicans in the House to vote to impeach Trump, said the Republican Party must “have an internal look and a full accounting as to what led to January 6.”

In the meantime, he said, his Republican colleagues need to “tell people the truth and quit peddling in conspiracies.”
