Notwithstanding Orrin Hatch's past, he has been a staunch and vocal supporter of President Trump since his election and inauguration, and for that he has earned my eternal thanks and respect.

If President Trump had a GOP Senate full of supporters like Orrin Hatch, his agenda would be moving forward at a lightspeed.

I despise all of these phony GOP obstructionists in the Senate...

I think I completely agree (in retrospect for me) the “wet-finger-in-the-wind” characterization by Michell Malkin.

I am not one of his constituents, and over the years, I would occasionally hear Hatch say things that made me think “Wow, that is great to hear a Senator say that! That was Orrin Hatch? He sounds like a stand-up guy! I need to follow his doings more closely...”

Then, the next time I heard anything about him, it might be “Good God! Why on earth is he supporting that? WTF? Who is this guy? I need to follow his doings more closesly...”
