“It was worth watching tonight’s show.”

We record it every night, then check FR, etc., to see if the show is worth watching. I’ll watch it this morning.

No, the good folks of Indiana look the fools for electing this baboso.

As a conservative I voted for him in 2016. I won’t in 2024 if I’m still here. I’m guessing he thinks the democrats are going to take back the senate this year and is setting up a switch back to his old party if that happens.

Braun folded like a cheap suit. No guts; no glory.

That thought also crossed my mind.

Lifelong Republican’ voted as a Democrat for 16 years

But that is only a part of the story. Despite calling himself a “conservative Republican” in his ads, Braun has voted as a Democrat in Indiana’s primary elections for more than a decade (1996-2012), according to public documents gathered by The Associated Press. This political behavior of Braun, who owns an auto parts distribution business, created a controversy along with his voting for a fuel tax rise a few years ago before he left the House to enter the race for a Senate position from Indiana. His critics often mocked him as “RINO”, a short form for “Republican In Name Only” for regularly voting as a Democrat. Braun’s camp tried to defend his voting for the Dems saying he did it to influence the outcome of the races and added that he has voted for the GOP in general elections. It hadn’t convinced many, however.

"The smirk on his face when he says this to Tucker, tells me this guy needs to be voted out yesterday."

I haven't watched the video yet but I trust our poster's opinions. Mike Braun has been a solid Trump supporter so I am a bit surprised by this. We voted out RINO Lugar, which didn't work out so well for us Hoosiers because we then got "catholic" Joe Donnelly (D). Braun replaced Donnelly.

He lost ground from the start. First rule of holes. When you can’t see out, quit digging.

I just now remember some made for TV movie (90s) about a chick on killing spree, she goes to the trailer (or maybe big rig truck) of her daddy (who raped her of course) and he says something like “So you’re a whore now huh? I’m not surprised, well get in here”.

I think they are his parents, and he was dropped on the head.

I (mercifully) don’t remember that flick...

Yes - incest and head trauma. What a tool.

Interestingly, he switched from the DemoCommie Party in 2012 to the RINO Party, before he ran for state office.

Another Infil-traitor.

I just rewatched the segment.

Something I hadn’t noticed, first time I watched...Braun’s neck begins to turn red, as Tucker begins to call this tool out.

I mean, it goes from looking a little sunburned to going BRIGHT, hot red.

Not surprised, only about 2% of our elected officials are at all impressive. This guy was a total loser.

Amazing when Tucker eviscerated this tool over wanting to support Schumer/Dems, over hard working business owners and citizens.

He thinks appeasing the Dems/the mob, will hurt “conservatives” and that we’ll only keep the Senate only if we insist on this appeasement.

Disgusting.

Oh that explains a lot! The Senator was a joke last night. The GOP was going to be left behind. A Bad law is a bad law - making it less bad is not helping anyone. Period.

The officer could have simply stopped chasing him and this guy would still be alive and likely in custody.

By definition, he would NOT have been in custody. You are assuming that the cops would have found this convicted felon, who had no problem resisting and firing at cops, and he would have been caught before he hurt someone else. It's just as possible that he would arm himself to resist going back to prison and killed cops and/or civilians when the cops came to get him.

The only way your logic works is if you can see the future. And since your opinion stated above leads me to believe that you can't even see the nose in front of your face, I'm not particularly convinced that you have any precognitive ability at all. The last thing this world needs is another Nostradumbass...
