GOP state senator called a RINO after declaring 'Republicans all over the country' want Trump impeached
GOP Nebraska state Senator John McCollister this week fired back at President Donald Trump's assertion that the Democrat-led impeachment inquiry is a hoax by asserting that"there are Republicans ALL OVER the country" who want him impeached.
Trump on Monday took to Twitter to call the impeachment inquiry"the greatest con job in the history of American politics." The president added:"The Fake News Media, and their partner, the Democrat Party, are working overtime to make life for the United Republican Party, and all it stands for, as difficult as possible!"
In response, McCollister rebuked Trump's claim that the GOP is"united" and said there are Republicans that agree with Democrats on impeachment. "'United Republican Party?' No. There are Republicans ALL OVER the country who want you impeached. We don't fall for some cult of personality. We've read the constitution," the state lawmaker tweeted, alongside the hashtag"#RepublicansForImpeachment."There are Republicans ALL OVER the country who want you impeached. We donât fall for some cult of personality. Weâve read the constitution.

A Handful of Republicans Have Formed a Club to Bitch About TrumpSometime in or around 2007, a friend’s ex-boyfriend, whom I was not particularly close with but had no animosity toward, invited me to join a Facebook group founded by “fiscal conservatives” and libertarians that advocated “sending a tea bag to Washington” in order to hold politicians accountable for... something that sounded completely normal, it’s hard to remember the initial platform. I was very young and much less jaded at the time, so I clicked “join” just to be nice. That’s how, many years after I’d forgotten about that dumb Facebook invite, I was horrified to realize I was a member of some weird proto-Tea Party, at least in long-forgotten Facebook groups. Since then, I have been wary of clicking “join” when Republicans and Republican sympathizers ask me to be in groups with them, even if those groups start out with superficially shared aims, such as removing Donald Trump from office. Because even if the first ask sounds reasonable, the next one usually involves Ted Cruz or Sarah Palin.
