Texas Republican Congressman Ted Poe has announced he is giving up membership in Hillary’s Favorite Caucus over their unwillingness to support President Trump:
“I have resigned from the House Freedom Caucus,” Poe said in a statement. “In order to deliver on the conservative agenda we have promised the American people for eight years, we must come together to find solutions to move this country forward. Saying no is easy, leading is hard, but that is what we were elected to do.
Leaving this caucus will allow me to be a more effective Member of Congress and advocate for the people of Texas. It is time to lead.” “Some only want to be the party of ‘no’ & would’ve voted against the 10 commandments,”
Congressman Poe’s exit from #NeverTrump leaves 29 remaining members.

So did TomMcClintock
Cowardice writ large.
Never heard of him but good riddance to ant RINO!! Conservatives elected Trump— Not Rinos.
Evil Paul Ryan hypnotizes another...
The Freedom Caucus is the best thing in Congress. Sorry to see Ted Poe leave.
They’re the primary reason that Ryan’s stinker of a bill didn’t even come up for a vote. We should thank them for that.
The party of “no” is the Democraps. What is he talking about?

FC is not #nevertrump
Clear Copy. I'm registering as an Independent. Screw the GOP.
Sometimes saying "no" IS leading.
If your 6 year old asked you for the keys to the car, would you give them to him or her, Ted?
Disclaimer: I am not comparing President Trump to a 6 year old. I will mentally un-FRiend any FReeper who tries to say such.
FC is being demonized for going against Trumpcare (Obamacare 2.0). Why are so many so called “conservatives” wanting to polish the Obamacare turd? Why would any sane Republican wants their President be left with the ownership of the sh*tsandwich?
They also gladly voted for Ryan to be Speaker.
So exactly when did they go from gutless RINOS to gods?
Frankly they are whomever they want to be at any given time
Any indication of what they’re waiting for, to call for Ryan’s resignation? If the House is ever going to do anything conservative, the first move must be to put a less bought and paid for Globalist Establishment shill in the Speakership.
You were elected to repeal ObamaCare you dweeb.
The RyanCare is not a repeal it is a revision and that is a distinction without a difference.
It is time to lead.” “Some only want to be the party of ‘no’ & would’ve voted against the 10 commandments,”

WHAT a major league a**hole! Ryan Care is NOT equal to the Ten Commandments. This character clearly has no core convictions, IMHO.
Now Trump is already looking at Dems for help...you can bet that most of the statist, crippling policies that are dismantling America will remain intact and the Dems will never work with Trump on things like immigration and the border wall. And the Left will still hate Trump's guts.
Control of all three branches of government and the Republicans still haven't done squat with it.
Obamacare repeal, tax reform, immigration and refugee reform should have all been done within the first 30 days.
Amazing, he can do math.
