Collins has no children. She married for the first time in recent years.

I think her husband is a lobbyist, but I’m not sure.

I think she would rather eat babies.

Was that Collins at AOC's gathering?

Clinton won Maine’s First Congressional District for one electoral vote,

Trump won Maine’s Second Congressional District, at 27,000 square miles the largest in area east of the Mississippi, by 10 points. This district covers 80% of the state. Trump won this district by 10 points and received one electoral vote. Collins is from this district. Her family owned a saw mill in northern Maine as far back as the 1840’s.

Hillary won the statewide popular vote by 2.9% for two additional electoral votes. She advertised much more heavily than Donald Trump here in Maine in 2016. If candidate Trump had spent more money, I think he would have carried the whole state.

Candidate Trump and sons Don Jr., Eric and wife Lara made many trips here. The president still has a lot of support here in Maine.

Maine was a mixed bag.

Apparently Susan supports corrupt politicians.

I don’t.

True. Yet, you must admit Donald J. Trump is an aberration. The Exception to the rule. One hell of a true Patriotic American aberration but, an aberration nonetheless.

Not to mention the overwhelming majority of people from that region of our country despise him for all the reasons we voted for him.

Trump won Maine’s Second Congressional District....80% of the state....by 10 points. He won one electoral vote as a result.

Hillary outspent him greatly in Maine. With a bit more money, he could have won the entire state.

The president has a lot of support in Maine’s CD 2.

Maine’s 2nd is NOT representative of the Northeast as a whole. Not even close. Is it your contention that Maine’s 2nd district is representative of the most populated districts in Maine, VT, Massachusetts, RI, Connecticut, and southern NH? Areas that have voted for the socialist / marxists democrats for many decades?

The NE is a lost cause of socialist / marxist wannabee’s. Are there little pockets of resistance? Probably. Do they have any political influence? No. None at all.

My sister who lives in MA tells me we are not a lost cause. We have had republican governors.

I can’t contain myself in laughing out loud. A NE republican is as Conservative as Satan is a Christian. It’s a fraud.

They made Mittens their Carpetbagger Governor. Weld their RINO Governor. Both Never Trumpers.

The NE is for all intents and purposes is Enemy Territory.

Where did I say that Maine’s 2nd Congressional District is representative of other districts in New England?

I was speaking only about Maine’s 2nd District.

Maine splits it’s electoral votes....the only other state that does that is Nebraska. I wish California would do so.

Granted, Maine only has four electoral votes. Maine’s First Congressional District....20% of the state’s land area in the southeast corner of the state...is moonbat central, with Massachusetts transplants, illegal aliens, refugees, and the like. I don’t expect the GOP to win this district, thought they did once, I think it was in 1994. People in the Second CD call the First CD “North Massachusetts.”

I certainly do not expect Rhode Island, Connecticut and the likes of Massachusetts to elect Republican members of the House. Anything is possible, but in the unlikely event that were to occur, they would be uber RINOs.

Maine is different than those other states....we elected the most conservative governor in the country, Paul LePage in 2010 and again in 2014. He signed a Constitutional Carry bill, which also legalized switchblades, in 2015. The democratic controlled Maine House passed it, as did the (then) GOP Senate.

Paul LePage was term-limited out in 2018. Maine experienced a blue wave in 2018, the likes of which hasn’t been seen in Maine in many years, as did other parts of the country. The GOP lost the Maine Senate, and Janet Mills, a liberal democratic and former Maine Attorney General, was elected governor.

Fortunately, Paul LePage said he is going to run again in 2022, which he can legally. (Term limits kick in after two consecutive terms....a governor can run again after two terms, as long as he or she skips a term in between term two and three).

LePage spends the winter in Florida and the warmer months in Maine.

There are a lot of good conservatives in the Maine House and Maine Senate. The dems tried to pass a number of anti-gun bills in the last session, but the Republicans, with some dem support, were able to make sure they were defeated.

The great RINO Susan Collins speaks. Why not move Defense work out of Maine? It will hurt the people of Maine, but it probably would hurt Susan the RINO more... More a thought than anything else...

But, but Senator Collins.... that’s a normal example of a president as chief law enforcement officer communicating properly under article II of the Constitution.

You go where the evidence leads to further discovery then possible indictment. American resources are not authorized to conduct an investigation inside China or the Ukraine.
